Under Midlands Masters rules is it illegal to have a marker where you can make the trigger bounce or is it only illegal to use trigger bounce?
Trigger Bounce
- Thread starter Roland
- Start date
Its only illegal to use the trigger bounce, otherwise everyone will be throwing paintballs at each other since you can make almost any marker bounce.
If the chronno marshal can make your trigger bonce your gun should not be allowed on the feild, if you get caught shooting iduring a game and it's bouncing you stand a chance of getting pulled.
It's one ball per trigger pull
If your marker is firring more than one you may need to look at your trigger set up it depends on what your shooting it could also be your input pressure.

I have an E-Blade and can make it bounce if I try but I can fire as fast by walking the trigger.Originally posted by SPARKLIE CHICK

I have the trigger set for maximum speed by walking the trigger but i.m sure a marshall could get it to bounce if they tried.
I wouldn,t risk trying to use trigger bounce in a game, one because it isn't allowed and second I could not risk getting it wrong and only firing one ball!
My dilemma is, do I leave it and risk being pulled or do I adjust the trigger to stop all possibility of trigger bounce and thereby slow my rate of fire considerably?
Simply set your trigger as short as possible and claim that you were using telekinesis to shoot your marker. Works for me. Not once in any rule book can I find any mention of thought powered triggers being illegal.
Marshall: "I'm pulling you for trigger bounce"
Me: "Niet Comrade Marshall, I'm using experimental Russian thought powered Voodoo Impulse, da?"
Failing that simply claim that your trigger is set so short that minute changes in atmospheric pressure can cause the marker to fire, technically still a trigger pull (yet again, no mention of atmospheric powered triggers being illegal).

Yeah... but i think that somewhere it says that if you can fire a marker without any external force on the trigger it shouldn't be allowed on the field... Hence the numerous sledgehammer-equipped marshals bashing the living **** out of the back of markers across the uk! (As highlighted in Walkers thread on trigger bounce in the UK.)
Better give Sergei his hypothalamus transponder IR6 back...
Well since the closure of the CIA's MK Ultra program, many of us "Manchurian Candidates", have had to find a new outlet or market for our skillz. I can't help being higher functioning can I? Next time I get pulled I'll just give a demonstration of my powers by making the field ultimate's head explode.
And as I have said, a 12gauge shotgun without the safety on will go off if dropped on the but (I know, I have seen it happen), that rule is all in the interpretation on how hard you test it.Originally posted by Stan

Roland, Eblades are noted by the tournies as being a 'high risk' marker for bouncing, there are many other ways in reducing this, all of which I am doing.

Increasing Trigger sense times in the FILT menu
Lowering the LPR to reduce force on the Ram
Speak to planet about it, you can reduce bounce without lower RoF, better safe than sorry.
