Rocking Trigger Frame Spyder Kingman NEW 30ps Paintball
(http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7173133245&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1)

if anyone can help thanks! and does anyone know of any barrels that are GOOD that i can find on ebay for around 5-10 bucks?

thanks!

I think if u get that trigger frame... u'll need to get a new esp striker...

If you are looking for a cheap barrel that will shoot well..... try a smartparts barrel...... the teardrop or progressive.....

i personally have a 12" teardrop and it shoots extremely well.

[PaintballPeSt]

ok cool so get that striker bolt and then a teardrop barrel? ill look into it. thanks. but it will take that trigger right? it would handle it? and should i change to n2? that way the gun doesnt freeze? or would a remote coil line work just as fine?

thanks again

If you plan on getting that rocking trigger crap you will need HPA. The high rates of fire that thing claims on CO2 the gun will freeze up.

[DJDUCKYI]

that rocking trigger crap


Yea........ the rocking trigger hasn't been easily accepted by everyone yet...
I have shot with the rocking trigger.. it's not bad... but i would prefer a modifed stock trigger and tboard...It's all about preferences...

Overtime.. i think the rocking trigger may become more popular... who knows

[PaintballPeSt]

yeah i know its about preference i still like my e-triggers, but i saw that rocking trigger and thought it might be cool to try out. who knows i might not even like it :-P

but the icon z will take that trigger right?

thanks again everyone.

it should.. prolli jus thave to replace the striker like i said...

[neo71665]

Don't take me wrong, I like e-triggers. I'm getting a E2 for my cocker. I just don't care for kingman products. Their QC has went downhill ever since I started playing. They are acting like they are going down the same path BE went down. And as yet I have not seen any of these and have only seen the ads.

But then again all the QC on the lower end markers has gotten bad here lately it seems.

And why would you need to do this? Kingman dosen't even suggest doing this. The only thing they suggest is their ACS bolt and unless they have finally worked out the bugs its crappy as ^&*(.

[PaintballPeSt]

hmm i didnt know kingman was going downhill. i guess ill just try it out.
unless you guys have tried it and can give me a review and your oppinions on it

thanks

[DJDUCKYI]

i thought he needed an esp striker since the icon Z is mechanical... only reason why he would need a new striker

[neo71665]

In september 05 issue of APG they put one on a spyder rodeo and never changed the hammer. Whats special about the esp hammer?

[DJDUCKYI]

well i guess i've been misinformed.... oh well.. no harm done

[PaintballPeSt]

good that saves me some bucks. so i just need to try that trigger and get n2 huh?

thanks again.

[neo71665]

well i guess i've been misinformed.... oh well.. no harm done

I'm just telling you what I know from reading the write up in APG. I can't think of any special reason to have the other hammer but if its lighter in weight. With a bench grinder and a good scale that is easy to do yourself for free. I don't see any reason to spend money on something I can do by myself.
Hell I laugh at all the people buying the highflow vert ASAs when I drilled mine out and it flows better than any of theirs and my anno still matches.

50g switch sweetspot and a tboard is where its at.

50g switch sweetspot and a tboard is where its at.



And since the t-board doesn't support haveing two trigger switches how are you gonna do this? Also what are you gonna do about the second switch, only replace one of them? Next time go read the thread you are posting in. This is the second time at least I have seen you just post useless info.

The only other thing you might need to buy to go with the e-frame w/ the rocking trigger is a drop forward or an adaptor for your existing drop. That's only if the screw holes for your existing drop do not match the holes on the new frame.
My friend bought a CAMD frame off of a Spyder Fenix for his Spyder Xtra and had to buy a new drop because the holes did not match up. Just another thing to consider.
