Dont know if this has been brought up before but anyways.

On the trigger pull the trigger breaks through a light beam like on toys or like eyes on a loader or eyes on marker bolts.

Just an Idea

idk, i think it would just be easier and cheaper to just use the systems they have out there now.

I remember one guy used his old Revy Eye to make a BB trigger. Its not really that hard. Its not turny legal though...most of the time.

Yup. I believe the G7 and he 05 Speed use this technology. Probably other guns out there that do as well.

my friend had an idea to put the mouse/touchpad area sort of thing from laptops in instead of a trigger. i bet there are way too many ways to exploit something like that tho and it would be bulky and complex to have all the software and such. so i said dont bother. no way it would be tourney legal, and seeing as how its possible to get trigger pulls way short with the current methods, it would just be a waste of time

No, it's actually not. Given that two of the better guns on the market use it, it can't be a lame technique to activate the trigger.
