    I can't tell you how much more I've thought of the idea of going back to single since ramping started. It looks like other people have had the same response.

      A slide cocker is the only single trigger frame i really enjoyed shooting. It was just so smooth. I didnt like on my single trigger mag how you had to put a lot of force on the trigger at once. The leverage of the double was nice. However on another note the single trigger does feed more natural and just had a nice feeling for sure. HOwever i still prefer the look of a double way over a single. And since my gun collection is mainly about looks and uniqueness id still go double. even on a pump.

        CF frame, double trigger, cut guard = best of both worlds. It lets me hold the gun with one finger on the trigger when running or use two to shoot once I make it to my bunker.

          Will it come back soon? I doubt it, to many kids want to brag about how fast there gun shoots. Some best times I have had playing were with my Dark Angel LED with a single trigger frame. That was long ago but I miss those days.

            That is definately true. I use a single trigger on all of my guns, and I like the feel.

              I dont care about the trigger, though I prefer single trigger, you can use double like single triggers

                I play CFOA and PSP tournaments, I havent played in anything but ramping for the last 2 or 3 years (with the exception of the occasional pump play, or pulling out a cocker or blazer during rec ball). I dont see any reason why single finger trigger frames would give you any kind of disadvantage when playing in psp ramp mode. Do I personally think its the next big thing? No, not untill a major producer of high end electros starts selling single finger frames as a stock option. But, do I think there would be a market for aftermarket single finger frames for high end markers? Most definatley. I think a lot of players would like single finger frames if they tried them out. In todays xball stlye play, players find themselves shooting almost constantly shooting, gone are they days where a player can just put his head down, make an all out sprint and make a big dive into his bunker safley and still call that a good bump up the field. Today people want to sprint while shooting, dive while shooting, and crawl while shooting. Now, to make this new style of play effective, players have to be able to aim their markers well with one hand or even mid-air. Single finger frames allow for much greater control of the marker and make these things easier to do with greater success.

                  When I'm playing in an Xball type game and I'm ramping, I almost never walk the trigger. There's no need. I always find myself shooting with one finger even though I have a double trigger. I'd have no problem having a PSP/CFOA/etc setup gun with a single trigger. Less weight rawr...

                      i deffinately wont go back to singles just because of the leverage factor. i have always had them even on my mech mags and cockers. however i can see it as a niche market. i do actually prefer some guns with single, like my sydarm, but that is limited.

                      i am working on a single finger gun project for fun though, which hopefully turns out nice. (reviving an old LED angel, board stamped 1998)

                      i dont see a comeback, like everyone else has said, it will take some well known pros to switch for that to happen, and with most playing PSP and NPPL, i doubt that would happen.

                        I would like single triggers to make a come back, but I doubt it happens.

                          I only use single triggers. They just feel better to me. To prove my point I think I need a picture...hehe. I got all the bases covered, pump, mech, electro.



                          I hope that single triggers become more popular just enough so that it's an option on newer guns.

                            I have no idea what other people might like or want. I would like one, however, I'd would probably not bother to get one even if it were available since I simply shoot my eMag like a single trigger most of the time anyway. My bottom three fingers fit in the space provided by the stock eMag grip.

                                getting that shocker may be easier than you might have guessed. Im kinda hurting for funds and looling to sell quick.
