it could be the way you have to hold the marker....some people just dont shoot well with the space frame...
Dark Timmy vs. A4 fly
- Thread starter Dunerat
- Start date
One thing that i could testify to is the speed that Dunerat can shoot with his IR3 fly! He's pretty damned quick on that trigger!
No problems with a space frame there!

They have somewhat different feels, in terms of the trigger, as the timmy uses a microswitch and the angel doesn't, which could either be a plus or a con depending on your personal taste. I'd be inclined to try out both first before commiting.
It's all in the way the trigger is set.
Majority of people sod and fart around with those 'Vernier Trigger Wheels' thinkin' that they are clever. If you don't adjust the TOE screw whilst doing so, it's all a waste of time.........
You hear hoards of the Yanks over on AOG complaining that their markers are faulty and they can only shoot 11-13 bps (on the readout). If I had a pound for every one of them that had the problem diagnosed as a poorly set-up trigger, I'd be rich by now.
I won't slate the Alias. Never used one myself. But then, now I have the FLY, I don't want to use one.
The FLY definately wins on looks in my book. Everything else in this world can be substituted for a cheaper version execpt........... CLASS......... Don't think anyone will argue that the FLY doesn't look good.
I really like it.........
When you shoot each marker, BE SURE TO CHECK that they have no bounce in the trigger set-up. So I hear, Timmy's looooove bounchy triggers. No bounce is THE ONLY TOURNAMENT LEGAL MODE, at present.......
some people have different feels to different frames, i like the angel space frame as it fits nice and snug into my psture when im playing, the timmy's one is ok, but i'd much prefer the angel frame!
"save yourself some trouble, and buy an angel!" best advice matt pryce gave me!

As has been said, Trigger setup is the fundamental variable to fast shooting...you need to setup the trigger on a gat, for you, before you will be able to shoot it fast and be able to make a judgement...I dont rate Timmys, full stop..I dont rate the older Angels either, but the A4 is a very good, very cool looking gat.
If you try an Angel, that is setup for a big back guy with strong fingers, it may be too heavy to pull fast for you..lighten it up a bit, and off you go..same is to be said for any trigger.
