| Review: |
The good:
This trigger weighs nothing. It may actually have a negative weight. It needs a gun to hold it down or it will float away. The delrin is fairly low friction, so it returns pretty smoothly, not as nice as bearings, but better than aluminum. The combination means you can sit it right on the microswitch with no bounce and no magnets. My trigger pull is set to 1mm at the bottom of the trigger, full pull, with zero bounce. Without the flipped switch on the board it feels heavy, but it's so short it makes up for it. I like the ergonomic shape. This trigger only costs a bit over $20 US, and it shipped to me within 5 days, cross border.
The bad:
The machining was a bit sloppy, with little bits of delrin sticking off the sides, and quite a few tool marks. It only comes in black, so unless that matches your colour scheme, there's no real plus on looks. There is a fair bit of side play on the trigger, and mine currently moves further side to side than front to back. The top set screw (pre travel) is way too long, mine is currently sticking out the bottom of the trigger by about 1 cm. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
There are better triggers out there, but for the money it can't be beat. |

| Review: |
I first heard of Fireball Mountain products when i was looking for a trigger for my last gun, an intimidator. I ended up buying a CP trig for it, but that's beside the point. I always wanted to try one of their trigs since they were so cheap. I thought since it costs so cheap, if i didn't like it, it didn't matter too much, because it didn't take too much out of my pocket anyhow. However, i advise you not to be fooled by the low price.
Let's see....today (2-1-06) i went to check the mail and brought it inside. After sorting through it all i noticed a medium-sized shipping envelope. I hastily checked where it was from and whooped for joy at the sight of FBM at the corner! My girlfriend looked at me odd but laughed at my childlike delight. I picked up a knife from the silverware tray and ripped it open. Alas! It was my new delrin trigger! Mind you, it only took 2 days to receive.
Upon my initial examination i noticed that it was a very light and smooth trigger. In my opinion, it was so smooth it almost felt like it was made out of rubber. Oh so comfortable...Anyhow, i took it to my room and pulled out the shocker. I took out my stock trigger and put this in. There are 4 set screw holes. One for the pre-travel, post travel, and 2 for firing point of the trigger. The 2 firing point holes i assume are to add more versatility to setting of the trigger (however they only give you 1 firing point set screw). I kept it in the hole it was originally in, but i'm sure you could put it in the one directly below it to give a stiffer pull (closer to microswitch). As i was tweeking the trigger to my liking, i noticed the pull can be made very very short. After i was finished tweeking the trigger, i tested it out a little. The pull was very smooth and seemed to spring back surprisingly quick even without a magnet (it does not include a magnet, however there is a groove behind the trig where it appears to be a place you could put a magnet if you so desired). Since the trig is so light, the microswitch itself springs it back. Also even tho this trigger may not have bearings, the ultra-smooth delrin material creates very little drag/friction. And finally and best of all, it's really cheap! I bought it off the website for only $25 plus s&h. So if you don't like it, it was only $25 bucks anyway. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
This is a cheap, light, durable, and awesome trigger that beats its price to a pulp. Again, i tell you not to be fooled by the low price. This trigger is worth every buck and then some. I advise you to shell out the ridiculously low amount of 25 bones and try it out. |

| Review: |
Ok, I have tried many triggers for my gun and this is hands down the best one out there. The trigger is so light that no magnets are required. As you may know, in order to lighten your trigger pull you reduce the tension on the magnets. This often causes bouncing. Bouncing is not allowed in touneys. Advantage: FBM Trigger.
You install it just like you do any other trigger. Except you dont need to adjust the magnets. Just take them out and lighten your gun. This trigger is sweet. Before i was ripping 20s with bouncing. Now i'm 20s without bouncing.
This trigger is only $22. Stop reading PBreview now, and go to http://www.fireballmountain.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Scree n=PROD&Store_Code=FBM&Product_Code=119st&Categor y_Code=
and get one for yourself.
I got mine at IAO, but make sure you check out their site. Engraving, anodizing, parts, everything you need. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
If you want to upgrade your trigger thsi is the only way to go.
good price, and overall a rippin trigger. |

| Review: |
The BEST trigger on the market FBM isnt very well known but they definatly know what theyre doing, their triggers have completely eliminated any bounce at settings way lower then the stock trigger could take. AND YOU DONT NEED THE MAGNETS!!! You can just take them out. Heres their website, www.fbmfactory.com, order one today. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
Get it!! |
