(i dont use an eletric marker) when i borrowed toole's
impy, i found that i was tapping my index finger and my mid finger
as fast as i could.. (like when you tap on a table)
as i was doing this i wasnt giving the triger enough time to go back to it's origanal position...
so would it be ileagul to have triggers like mouse buttons,
ya know in 2 sections so you can quikly tap each button..
(practice it with your mouse, its rather fun:D )

Markers are allowed to have only one trigger and one trigger switch. The actual wording usually changes from year to year, but that's basically the rule that is followed when push comes to shove. I know, I used to have an Aux. trigger switch on the side of my trigger frame for my index finger, on my old Shocker. It worked great, but I'd keep forgetting it was there, and I have a tendency to cradle my gun with my arms wrapped around it...ie I'd keep shooting the darn thing accidently when watching games.

Actually, RT's are supposed to push the trigger back against your finger for quicker firing - if the Marker 'sweet-spots' then that is a malfunction of the RT system (also called 'Runaway') - this can be easily adjusted by lowering the input pressure into the Marker.

Tippman RT kits are known for Runaway as the Reactiveness can be adjusted with-out altering output pressures and with-out tools:eek:

If you want the full SP - check out the many debates on Automags On-line:rolleyes:

Does this count as trigger bounce (is it bad?):

I have set the trigger on my E99 (boo yaaaa hisss) incredibly short and light. (incredible for me, not all you angel and timmy phreaks out there!):)

Now, the E99, being a lower end marker, kicks quite abit compared to better (read "more expensive") guns. And i've found that if i apply just the right amount of pressure to the trigger, that the kick (i dont dare call it recoil) actually rocks the gun back then forwards and pushes the trigger back into my finger shooting the gun a second, oh, no, third, oh fourth, oh fifth, sixth, seventh....etc time It actually only works in short bursts, but my god those shots are coming off fast.

This is bad isnt it, some one is going to tell me off arent they?:(

I actually never, or rarely, use this in a game, its just something the gun can do if you try.

Waddya say?

Yeah but Liz are these Rules stated in the series and MM rule book.

If the trigger is bouncing and for example the marchell notices this what rule or enforcement can he make when there is no Rule stating what you just explained.:confused:
