TALON TRIP MINE
Here are some instructions to show you how to build a trip wire trigger for a Talon.
STEP 1:  Safety first

The first step is to remove the trigger guard from the talon, just use a hack saw.
STEP 2: 

I used a piece of metal that is used for mounting
bookshelves onto walls. Cut about a 1.5 foot piece of this and bend it
as shown above.
STEP 3:

This piece should fit tightly around the bottom of the handle.
STEP 4:

Cut another 6inch piece of metal and attach it to the trigger with duct tape. (not the cheap duck tape kind it just falls off)
STEP 5:

This step has steps:
1. Find a bolt to hold both sides of the bookshelf metal together make sure it is REALLY tight.
2. Stretch some rubber bands around the trigger so that
they pull the trigger towards the gun handle, the more the merrier I
usually use about 3-4 rubber bands.
STEP 6: Setting the trap.

Hold the trigger away from the gun as shown then insert a nail though one of the holes to hold the trigger in place.
Then cock the gun. It shouldn't fire yet, If it does the trigger probably wasn't far enough away from the gun.
STEP 7: Firing the trap.

Finally pull the nail out and the trigger should slam against the bolt causing the gun to fire.

This is the gun mounted on a quadpod (tripod will work just as well).  I use 20lb fishing wire as trip wire.
I attached some backpack straps to the bottom so I
could carry it around like a backpack but the metal dug into my back
when I ran so I but some old socks on the sharp ends.
This is the gun with some ghillie camo.

This gun is really easy to camo up during the game but I made it some ghillie camo anyways.
When loading this gun fill the barrel full of paint (about 10 paintballs) because someone could get hit at very close range!!!
