Trigger Bounce is when a trigger is set so damned lightly (hair-trigger) that the actual gun cycling resets the trigger, and actually makes the guns' electronics think a second trigger pull has occured, which sends another shot out of the marker, even though you've only pulled the trigger once. So you get more than one shot per trigger-pull.

If you get more than one shot per trigger pull, then your marker is bouncing. :)

First off, what marker do you have? Each one can be altered mechanically, or electronically to bounce, and do various other things.

How to avoid it? Dont put a hair-trigger on your marker. :D

I think my definitions are accurate, but if I'm wrong, correct me. :p
