Do lighter guns suffer more from bounce?

So its more switch noise then?

that is very weird. surely it shouldnt do that, unless you have parkinsons (no offence meant before i get flame grilled)

if the trigger is actually stationary, how is the switch activating repeatedly?

It's possible to set the trigger so damn tight that you pull it once, release it instantly, and it'll keep shooting for a few more seconds.
This is indeed switch noise, and will only happen when you set the trigger very tight, with about zero return spring (so it's fully reliant on the switch pushing the trigger back).
