Anyone have any opinions on whether the Hellstorm trigger systems. Also, anyone know how it is different than the TAC trigger systems. Preference between the 2 (for UZI). Thanks.

    Despite claims in their ads, "trigger systems" never work well. Save your money.

    I have had a bad experience with the Hellstorm trigger systems.I felt it to be unstable,unsafe,unreliable and the nearest to nothing thing I ever wasted my money on.Hope this helps

    Good Luck.

    I agree with Rugster, a waste of time and money. Spend your money on accuracy.

    Thanks, Grizztribefans@sssnet.com

    I haven't tried any of the triggersystems - but have had quite some experience on semi-auto and fully-auto weaps.
    Now i only go for semi-auto and practise the "Sweet spot"...

    To find the "Sweet spot" - set the gun to semi-auto fire with no ammo in the magazine or chamber... (Check carefully that it's completely empty of rounds)
    Set your weapon as you would if you'd fire live rounds...Press the trigger until the gun clicks off - and slowly release the trigger again untill you hear another click - practise that a few times, get the feel of the slight movement you'd have to do.
    You might wanna try to "cramp" your hand a little bit - hold on extra carefully with your triggerhand at first.

    you'd find out at the firing range - that you can often shoot nearly as fast as on full-auto or that you can shoot 2-3-4 shot bursts at nice presition.
    All it takes is a couple of boxes of ammo and practise practise practise.
    Once fired a full 20-round mag from a M-75, cal. 7.62mm-Nato standard military rifle at 3.4secs on semi-auto just by finding the "Sweet spot", with no loss of accuracy in laying position at 100metres. About 175points of 200 possible.
    (remember that time, i forgot my ear-plugs.. had a slight Eeeeee-tone of constant ringing for an hour after that.. always remember earpluggies)

    Happy hunting/practising

    All simulated full auto trigger devices are total junk. I've tried most. Save your money.
    What HappyNanoq is referring to above is what we call "bump" firing.
    With my AK I can fire 30 rounds in 3 seconds. It is fun to do once in a while but it gets expensive and the gun gets very, very hot and usually locks up after 2-3 30 round magazines fired in that fashion.
    Then you must wait until the gun cools down before you can fire it again. If you only do it once in a while it is fun. I have a picture of me bump firing 10 rounds a second , dust everywhere, bullets flying , but I have no way to post it.
