directly from APE.

okay im going to order it online..

does it require a cp trigger or will the stock trigger of the g3 work?

i think the only board that requires an aftermarket trigger is the 7e board. it wouldnt hurt to have a nice trigger tho. stock one has alot of side to side if you dont do the tephlon mod.

From what I've seen it does require an aftermarket trigger to actuate the microswitch since the fang is used for the opti switch. I'm not truthfully sure since I run 7E and CP trigger on mine.

nah no aftermarket trigger required. if you look at the stock trigger, there is the part that triggers the opti switch, but behind that there is a shorter "fang" that triggers a micro switch. http://ruthlesspaintball.com/image.p...g3/compare.jpg theres a pic of the back side of a stock trigger (taken from ruthlesspaintball.com) and u can see the shorter part for the microswitch.

I have an APE board on mine, and used the stock trigger for a while. I eventually upgraded to a CP trigger, because the stock trigger isn't very good. You really don't notice how bad the stock trigger is until you start using it with a microswitch board.

you could also get a TBO trigger..they are much nicer then the cp trigger IMO. I have both and i love the TBO trigger...altho i wish i got the black shank instead of the black vampire

GAmedic23 · 10-25-2009, 11:21 PM

Stock works with any board other than 7E. I recommend the TBO lineup.

firefoxx04 · 10-26-2009, 05:40 AM

im gonna go with the ape and stay with the stock trigger. (i have the G3 IQ and the trigger is different from the G3, alot nicer imo)

IntenseImage · 10-26-2009, 06:38 AM

The trigger on the iQ is the same as the G3 ... ive had both

TheJoosh · 10-26-2009, 07:11 AM

just wrap tephlon tape around the screw that holds the trigger on the frame. i did that to my stock trigger and side to side is gone.

GAmedic23 · 10-26-2009, 07:13 AM

I would just rather swap out the trigger. Teflon tape will wear down.

TheJoosh · 10-26-2009, 07:17 AM

its a good temp fix tho if you dont have the cash for a CP or TBO trigger atm. in my case i'm waiting till I get back to the states to get my trigger cuz shipping to the philippines is expensive ><

well idk then.. i have the 2009 version of the iq. g3 iq and the trigger is clearly different.. i can take pics.. my buddy has a first gen g3 and his trigger is different..

TheJoosh · 10-26-2009, 08:15 PM

pics plz. i also bought my IQ this year back in july so i'm assuming its the 2009 version as well. my trigger looks just like any other g3 or iq trigger.

okay ill take pics of my trigger and post links in a sec.. its the IQ that came out iin july of this year also.. this is wierd

firefoxx04 · 10-26-2009, 08:36 PM

it might be hard to tell the diff but when i get ahold of my buddys trigger you can tell the difference. my trigger (2009 IQ) is not as flat as the g3 trigger

not that great of quality.. taken on my phone

i guess it looks the same but its not.. O.o idk what does your tigger look/ feel like on your g3s.. cuz me and my buddy have different stock triggers

SpecOpsDeath · 10-26-2009, 08:39 PM

yea that looks exactly the same....

firefoxx04 · 10-26-2009, 08:42 PM

well its not.. i feel like a dumb **** but its not.. ill get a shot of it next to the g3 trigger and you can see the difference.. and it feels a whole lot nicer..

SpecOpsDeath · 10-26-2009, 08:43 PM

it may have no side to side play (that was a huge problem with the first g3)
