So how does the return action on the trigger feel?  Is it adjustable at all?

it would prolly work better on an eletric triggetr, but it does make the pull lighter and smoother, and for only 2$ for the magnets lol

I'd be afraid to put the magnets that close to the electronics without some testing first.  You know how magnets and electricity get along.

add or subtract magnets? that just sounds like it takes too long

the magnetic return on my A-5's trigger is adjustable via one magnet attached to a screw that you can turn in/out to get a heavier/lighter return with an allen key without even taking anything off or apart.

"rare earth" are stronger magnets for there size (they get ther name from useing rare earth element's), they can allso be stronger then some bigger size magnets.

I think the Ego has a magnetic trigger return and a lot of high end markers have it too I belive.

The one you love to hate
