I'd like some feedback on different rapid fire triggers...is the Hell Fire trigger any good??? Are there any trigger accessories that work within the trigger gaurd, like a normal trigger? Thanks for any feedback!

My fingers don't move 15 times that fast! These are some old broken up carpenter hands.
...remind me not to piss you off in person[;)][:D]
hell fire's are a neat trick, but do take allot of ammo to get it correct, learning how to bump fire has the same effect, and can be done with a stiff finger and the same amount of ammo to learn it, then there is the bmf activator i do not know if they are still in biz, but it is a hand crank that fire three rounds per one revolution
I got one of those semi Vector 7.62x39 RPD beltfeeds, its cool....
Anyway the trigger is, I would say under 2 pounds, and very touchie.
That sucker in the prone or bench postions, then pushing forward a lil bit on the back of the stack, will bump fire....super easy.
So I would say that a "Super Light" trigger, as in my case , works wonders.
When I take it to machinegun shoots, just about everyone things its a full autogun, but it aint.[:)]
I would say that its bump firing around 600-700rpm, and will empty a 100rd belt in about 9-10 seconds[:p][:p]
I like it!!!!
I also wondered about the "Hellfire", but think the crank would be a pain. I'm also intrested in the answers you get...
Happy New Year Y'all.....

Pretty simple to do it with the Ak but never got it to work with the Ar-15.
It's neat to see every now and then, but after you toss 50+ bucks downrange in a few minutes, it loses its appeal.

The best rapid fire trigger is the one found on any legal Class III full auto weapon. The rest of them waste time, money, cause your usable barrel life to evaporate like snow in Havana, and get you visits from government employees that work for agencies with initials.[;)]
And how does a legal Class III Full auto triggersystem NOT cause usable barrel lige to evaporate?
All rapidfire causes excess wear and tear on (or in) the barrels.
Personally, I like to adjust the trigger, so I can direct aimed shots - much in the manner of Bumpfiring.
1: Take a few dry testshots(no ammo in either magazine or chamber!!!), find out where the trigger "breaks" to release the shot and hold it there. This can take some practise-runs.
2: Find out how much you need to release the trigger, to allow the trigger to reset for a new shot. (There will usually be an audible "click" sound as you slowly releases)
3: Practise the "Shot/reset"-area of your trigger until you feel confident in it. Plan for expected recoil, make sure you got the grip.
4: In a safe direction on a range - or under controlled environments - try out a magasine with a few cartridges in it first. This way CAN run amok if you have no control or experience in stopping it.
Once you got this technique under control you can "Bumpfire" a shouldered rifle for aimed shots.
You can "bumpfire" a semiauto pistol the same way.
Mind you though, that this is NOT actual "Bumpfiring".
What is known as "Bumpfiring", is where you bend your triggerfinger in a hook-like position, place it on the trigger and with the other hand pulls the gun forward and the stiff triggerfinger backward and lets the recoil do the rest.
That kind of firing leaves you with little control of the first few shots - if any control at all and can (if it's big caliber or light weapons) injure your finger.
My kind of "Bumpfiring" (Or finding the "Sweet spot" of the triggermechanism) uses experience and knowledge of triggermechanisms.
I have used the "Sweet spot"-technique on my Benelli Super Black Eagle, Winchester 1500 XTR European shotguns, used it on HK G3 (on semi) and HK 91, AR15, AR30, AK47, AK74, and various other semiauto rifles.
Have always been able to deliver aimed (From a shouldered weapon), controlled bursts or aimed sustained rapid fire - simply by mastering that technique.
You can learn to deliver deadly (if needed) aimed controlled bursts from your rifle as well, simply by learning that technique.
But do be aware though - that not all triggers handle well or can do this, but if it can - you're in for a surprise when you learn it.
LOL johall!

ohh man its funner then most people would think it is..i use to put one or two shots in front of them just to get them running. then just let loose.
