mechanicel bounce test

[Rabies]

Shotguns can fire if dropped. I have never seen a shotgun with trigger bounce. If the judge is hurting his hand trying to get the gun to fire, it's not a very reasonable test.

And it's not testing for bounce at all.

My bad then.

English is not my first language so I probably missed it in the rules were does it say ramping is allowed?

you guys need to hit the weights Johan then again maybe we need to so we can move our new and legal triggers.

I still mean that the rule has to say something about the force that is allowed to be used.

Going PRO this year Johan?

they will probably be supplied a metal headed hammer to hit the back of our airsystems! you wont get any bouncing triggers but the occasional catastrophic compressed air explosion my render a few teams some probs!

Ehm.... Sam.... ????

Would you then like to clarify the meaning of this in the rules:

provided they shoot in semiautomatic or pump mode only defined as no more than one paintball is discharged for each trigger cycle

I definitely do NOT think ramping will be allowed - at if it is, I would very much like an MS official to say it publicly, so that we don't have scores of players banned at Maxs, for THINKING ramping was allowed!

he means they say that 1 shot per cycle is how it should be but ....... they do not have any rules inplace for cheaking for ramping and if they ant cheaking for it u can bend the rules to ur advantage

The plans are there but when has not been decided we may go Pro from the start of the season and we may not.....it is a dificult decision to make.

Thats a thought, if our equipment is damaged in any way due to this pre-game testing are the MS going to cough up the cash for a replacement?
