Snowie Monday, July 10th, 2006 Period of Product Use: Less than a month 2 of 2 people found this review helpful. Paintball Experience: 2 years Similar Products Used: wgp hinge frame Marker Setup: 14" Smart Parts Progressive Barrel Shocktech hinge swing frame Dead on dropfoward/on-off valve WGP delrin bolt 47ci/3000psi crossfire compressed air tank/n2 WGP Oracle flame trigger Evlution II loader w/ z-board(23-25bps) Strengths: 6mm trigger pull (Its adjustable on the newer models) Weaknesses: No safety Heavy springs Price Review: I have the newer model of the swing frame and it looks nothing like the one in the pic. The newer one looks much nicer with a larger trigger guard. This swing frame NEEDS new springs and possibly a near sear(i recommend the besales or the shocktech sears). If you want the best out of this product, then you will need these. With nothing modified, I timed myself on my watch and shot 10-12bps(not bad for a mech trigger). The trigger pull on the newer model of the swing frame is adjustable(not sure about the older models though). BUT, THE LIGHTER YOU MAKE THE TRIGGER PULL, THE HIGHER CHANCE YOU HAVE OF SHORTSTROKING. For me, I modified mine to a 2mm trigger pull with light springs. With this I can get about 13-15 bps(excellent for a mech trigger) It can pull off ropes of paint and so can you if you know how to use the swing frame(im trying to get a vid. of me using it). Conclusion: This frame needs some modifications and some new parts for it to work well. Out of the box its okay but your not using its full potential. I give it an 8.5 only because their is no safety and out of the box performance could be better. It is very adjustable and very upgradable so I'll round the rating up to a nine. It is better than the wgp hinge frame. Rating: 9 out of 10 I found this review   0 Comments - Add Comment

TheSpy11 Saturday, April 30th, 2005 Period of Product Use: 3 months Paintball Experience: 1 year Similar Products Used: none Marker Setup: 2K2 WGP Vertical Feed Autococker Shocktech Swing Frame Shocktech beaver tail Shocktech Bomb 12" All American Empire Reloader Strengths: Good trigger Comfortable Looks nice Weaknesses: Could be a little smoother Review: First off I'll say that mine is the newer style and doesn't look like the one in the picture. I like the nice trigger the best out of this product. It's easy to pull and feels right for my fingers. The frame is comfortable with a nice grip. It sure makes for an easier day of shooting. I also like the look it gives to the marker. It has nice, smooth lines and fits right in with the rest of the customizations. The trigger pull could be a little smoother; It doesn't quite have as smooth an action as I would like. No biggie though and I don't notice it much. Conclusion: A very nice trigger frame. Not much to complain about. Rating: 9 out of 10 I found this review   1 Comment - Add Comment

Mattdieter Thursday, January 22nd, 2004 Period of Product Use: 3 months Paintball Experience: 3 years Similar Products Used: e-blade on heavy snap Marker Setup: 01 rightfeed cocker - shocktech bomb 3-way -p.o.s cmi truflight - shocktech swing frame with stickies Strengths: very fast comfortable unique look Weaknesses: too snappy Review: This frame is fast, but has way too much snap. I would definately recomend a new spring inside it. The frame's snap is so fast that my 12 vt revi can't get a ball into the chamber before the bolt closes. Definately get a halo if you can't get a new spring in the trigger. Conclusion: The only thing wrong with the trigger is the snap, and that can be fixed, I just wrote this to warn all of you about the problem Rating: 8 out of 10 I found this review   1 Comment - Add Comment

mbs0704 Sunday, September 28th, 2003 Period of Product Use: 3 months Paintball Experience: 2 years Marker Setup: black magic 2002 autococker freak barrel system 88 ci pure energy tank da bomb 3 way shocktech swing trigger Strengths: nice feel able to fire quickly Weaknesses: saftey broke first thing really meant for one finger operation Review: Within a few times of playing, the saftey on this broke. I pushed in the saftey, and it went too far. It was locked in the safe position. A piece of metal inside the frame had bent back, had to have saftey removed, so now i dont have a saftey in it. I really like the feel, but I do feel that they could have put thicker metal on the inside. Also it needs a looser spring inside of it, a bit too tight. It has a great feel, just minor changes that need to be made. Conclusion: This is a very nice trigger frame other than its minor flaws, try one out before buying it, and be VERY careful with the saftey.

ShockTechIs#1 Monday, August 25th, 2003 Period of Product Use: 6 months Paintball Experience: 3 years Similar Products Used: System X Frame, doesn't really have a great feel. I feel like I'm gonna break it when I shoot it. Marker Setup: Custom cocker with Shocktech parts. 14 inch Dye Boomstick barrel. crossfire tank. Strengths: Feel, Speed, Trigger Design. Weaknesses: Smoothness, Trigger Stop Review: Good: 1. Feel- This gets paint out of your gun pretty fast. I stil have the Ryan Williams Complex (basically, mechanical 'Cockers still kick serious @ss), so I'm attached to this. I can put out some mean ropes with this thing. It also has a very beefy feel to it, like you're actually holding something. I got the new one, it's alot different from the one in the picture. 2. Speed- If you got some good fingers, balls to the wall then... 3. Trigger Design- No-nonsense! Doesn't have these extraneous features that a Cocker can't live up to! Bad: 1. Smoothness- You gotta put lighter springs in this bad boy. 2. Trigger Stop- it gets really annoying when you find the stopping point, and then in mid-game, from repeated shooting, having it back out on you. Then, you start to chop. I don't even set mine anymore, my hands move fast enough to make full strokes. Conclusion: This problem is very good. Has the Shocktech name! Lighter springs and if it's nessecery, a trigger job, will solve your "problems" Rating: 9 out of 10 Last edited on Sunday, August 31st, 2003 at 4:36 pm PST I found this review   0 Comments - Add Comment

Phobos182 Tuesday, March 11th, 2003 Period of Product Use: Only tested Paintball Experience: 3 years Similar Products Used: Many cocker trigger frames. Dye, works, eclipse, shocktech, benchmark, etc. Marker Setup: Custom Cocker Strengths: Very Light Very confortable to hold Sexy (Much different looking than in picture) Very smooth action Weaknesses: Really made for one finger operation in my opinion. The groove for your finger on the bottom of the hinge is where all the weight from the pull comes from. I myself fire with both fingers, so it took a little getting used to. Review: I think this would be a great hinge for those that are used to sliding triggers. This is a good frame. Most frames are the same, the only difference is feel. This trigger frame felt very good, but not the best i have shot in my opinion. I would give it a try though. Conclusion: I would reccomend that you try a lot of frames out before you purchase one, this just may be your diamond in the rough.Good frame, not for everybody of couse.

Digital Sunday, January 5th, 2003 Period of Product Use: Less than a month Paintball Experience: 3 years Similar Products Used: Tested eclipse and dye hinge frames. Marker Setup: 2k2 Autococker Shocktech Bomb 3-way Shocktech Swing Frame Freak Kit Warped Sports Cradle 68ci/3000 Crossfire Strengths: Smooth, fast light trigger pull, Lug doesn't need alot of sear to catch well, trigger feels great. Frame feels good. One of the best feeling triggers I've ever seen. Weaknesses: The screws for my cradle wouldn't work, had to find some different onces, no problem though. Also when I was firing it for the first time, the trigger stop backed out and I started chopping. Adjusted it back and locked it in. Conclusion: Really good frame that doesn't get alot of credit. One of the best feeling triggers I know of. It really rips. My frame doesn't look like the one above, its been redisigned sence then.

Scorpius Monday, September 16th, 2002 Period of Product Use: 3 months Paintball Experience: 1 year Similar Products Used: Dye double trigger hinge = Works just as well as the new Shocktech frame, just a little different feel in the trigger pull. Marker Setup: Black 2001 r/f cocker New Style Shocktech swing trigger Stock reg and pneumos Freak barrel set w/ 12" AA tip Shocktech mid-drop w/ on/off valve Strengths: Very smooth Good feel on the trigger Looks a LOT better than the first gen frame Has a weight reducing groove on the back that feels kinda weird (not bad, not good, just different) Pretty easy to rip on if everything on your gun is working right, timed and all that. Weaknesses: Well, not a whole lot, I guess that some people might not like the groove on the back of the frame, but it's just personal preference, I guess. Conclusion: I really like it over the stock slider, it's really hard to short-stroke a hinge frame anyway, but this is a very nice upgrade for your cocker (after a new barrel, of course). It gets a.... Rating: 9 out of 10 I found this review   0 Comments - Add Comment

MookieB1587 Monday, May 13th, 2002 Period of Product Use: Less than a month Paintball Experience: More than 5 years Similar Products Used: ANS Quick Fire (Nothing like this baby though!) Shocktech Hinge Trigger 1st Genereation) Sucked Marker Setup: '02 Black Magic Autococker 12 Inch Freak System 12 volt Revolution Hopper with Vortex Propellers 68/30 AGD Flatline N2 System KAPP Front pneumatics Shocktech Rat 3:16 Valve Shocktech Hinge Trigger (2nd Generation) ANS Quickfire Frame Shocktech Supa Fly Bolt KAPP Low Rise KAPP F/X Beavertail Black Magic Cocking Rod Black Magic Pull Pin Shocketech PHAT Hammer Strengths: The short trigger pull (1.5 mm) The NEW look... sweet NEW Trigger Gaurd New Trigger (Pretty Much everything) Weaknesses: The only bad thing that I would say would be bad is that it doesn't come in more colors because I have custom milling on my gun and the colors didn't match so I just had to go with the Chrome. Conclusion: The 2ND GENERATION of these hinges are huge improvements from the first ones and I love them and I am glad I chose to go with these. If you have the money go with these because they do help a lot with your ROF!! Rating: 10 out of 10 I found this review   0 Comments - Add Comment

MuffinButt Tuesday, April 9th, 2002 Period of Product Use: 1 year Paintball Experience: 1 year Similar Products Used: WGP, Dye and Eclipse Blade hinge triggers. Marker Setup: AKALMP Viking w. 88/45 Crosffire, warp-feed & Revoltion w. x-board Strengths: The ease of adjusting the length of the pull on the trigger is a nice feature. Weaknesses: I find that the grub screw that is used to adjust the trigger pull length does not let you fine tune the adjustability to the extent of the WGP or Eclipse product. The trigger guard is cheap and shouldn't be a screwed in piece of metal. The trigger pull is very snappy for a hinge (unless you like it that way... to each their own). Conclusion: This is Shocktech's contribution to the wave of hinge triggers that have come out on the marker for the Autococker and they didn't do it quite as well as the other companies. If you're looking to increase the rate of fire on your 'cocker, this is a good addition but seriously look at the other products first.
