Sand down your trigger so it is a straight silver trigger. then paint it with clear nail polish. VERY NICE>>>>:)

Not much, just a different feel. As a personal thing, I like the feel of it. Used to have one of those "straight" triggers with my DYE frame before I traded it... It feels great, in my opinion, don't need no grooves to tell you where to put your fingers. ;)

where do trigger shoes go? at the bottom of the trigger or top or middle?

Yeah, some guy posted a picture of his sanded down trigger back in april or something, and I saw it and a few minutes later was working on mine. I really like it. Gives it a nice feel.

Anybody with a spyder buy a shocktech dropforward? will I need to buy an adapter or do they have staggard holes. and will I need a new asa also?

------------------------------------

I wanted to take my trigger gaurd off, and people told me I couldn't and still play at fields. But I see pictures of tons of guns on this site with taken off trigger gaurds.

So does anyone know how to make a "convertibal" trigger gaurd?

it depends on what kind of trigger shoe u have. the one im getting covers the whole trigger, and it makes it more comfortable. just my opinion though......

is it natural for my bolt to get worn out in the front? i mean, i used it once and it got all scratched up. should i polish it?

Yeah, it's natural... I've never seen a "slip-on" trigger shoe for Spyders like those on 'Cockers. If you have a double trigger frame already, don't cut the trigger guard, just leave it on... Most all Spyders I've seen, recently anyways, come with double trigger frames. No, a Shocktech drop forward will not fit without inline holes. If your ASA comes with staggard holes for staggard frames, then yes, you will need a new frame.

I did that "sand down your trigger down" thing. I didn't sand it completely flat 'cause I was afraid the bottom half of the trigger would break off, but it's pretty flat. Funny thing, I put my fingers in the same place I did before. :|

Mine looks better jk.

when I sanded mine down it turned silver. I like it silver.

if a gun isn't a blowback, you don't need to worry about blowback right? sounds pretty obviouse but I want to make sure.

Mine is silver on the front, I'm planning on painting it black though.

And sorry for posting the same thing like 6 times, as you can see I deleted the repeats.

what do you think of how the dye stickies stick out the back of the handle some.

Paint Bulley- You don't notice it since you hands rest below the part that sticks out.

what do you mean I don't notice it?

If I didn't notice it I wouldn't of asked. I do have them, and notice those little things. I have a semi-wide hand, and I wonder what it would be like with out them, but, don't wantto make them ugly.

The way you typed that it sounded like you were wondering, and have never used stickys before. Plus, you asked what he thought. I have held them so I told you what I thought ok?

They don't bother me, but they do make the grip look kinda weird.
