Bottle Slap Bounce test

Having problems stopping my light shocker trigger shooting once when I slap the back of the bottle. Doesn't bounce when you pull the trigger slowly or runaway when firing fast, just pops out a shot when you hit the bottle (just one, not full auto)

I use the NDZ Slik Trigger on a Virtue Board.

Any ideas?

Don't slap the bottle?

I presume you have the barrel pointing in the air when you do this - so you are making the trigger bounce far more that it would from the vibration of it firing.

It just means you have a very light trigger - not a bouncy one (assuming it only fires once per slap).

My son's ION does the same - yet you can not get the trigger to bounce any other way.

the only way I could ever fix this was strengthening the magnetic force (move it forward in the frame) so the trigger doesnt move back when you slap it ...had this problem a few times and that's always been the answer ..however obviously it makes a hatder pull but if your ramping anyway ;)

You need to either increase the trigger return strength or reduce the weight of the trigger, if it's an ally shocker trigger i'm sure a bit of time with a file/hacksaw could cut the weight quite a bit.

well, it's the NDZ slik trigger (which has no repell magent), it's very light already but because the Virtue microswitch is so light I reckon thats the reason.
The Dynasty frame I have in does have room for a magnet though, i think i'll have to wait till I get my Critical trigger with magnet to get rid of this properly. Or i'll add a magnet to the slik trigger somehow.
