Rocking trigger.. tourney legal?
i've been hearing some different things about the rocking trigger by Kingman... is it tourney legal anywhere yet? and does anyone think it's gonna be legal eventually?

Nope. The trigger bounces too much. I've seen the gun shoot so fast the bolt doesnt cycle all the way so you would chop paint like crazy. Its not legal now and i highly doubt spyder/kingmann is going to try to make it legal any time soon.

They're not tourny legal, but you should always check with the tourny. A tourny comin up in my area is allowing me to play w/ my rocking trigger. It depends on the tourny host, so always check first

Technically its NPPL legal, because if fires 1 shot every time you pull the trigger. But it ends up just bouncing like crazy.

1. if the gun bounces its not legal
2. if you got it not bouncing(highly doubtful) it has to be capped at 15.4 bps somehow(pending on the league/tournament you are playing)

I agree, i got screwed that way once. I travelled pretty far to a tourney in Iowa, only to discover I had to DQed on two parts.... just make sure you check.. and then GET IT IN WRITING cuz people are jealous man. My buddy had a title revoked cuz this local dude raised hell cuz he lost...

the vs3 trigger looked pretty good.

and yes they are perfectly legal in spyder cup, which i might be participating in. :*) (if my team signs)

I don't feel bad for them one bit. the rocking trigger is an overpriced piece of hype geared to get more sales. It does absolutely nothing different than a normal trigger. |

Also teaches bad finger posture. You really gotta strech them apart to get that thing working.
Oh, and btw, if the VS3 was so great, why did the winning team last year use VS2's?

lol, fail :P
Really, the rocking trigger/VS3 isn't worth it.
The VS3 is just a VS2 with a crap trigger and a bigger price tag.

it's when the kick of your marker bounces the trigger into the switch and your marker fires. it's illegal in any situation.
