Mosfet confusion

[Lozart]

So, I'm not going to get much from fitting one, although I like the idea of 2 or 3 shot burst, but I'm now a little confused about precocking!

I completely understand the theory behind it but my MP5 has a specified rate of fire of 700 to 850 rounds per minute. Even if that's wildly overestimated and we say 600 pm, that's 10 per second! Each shot is a tenth of a second! Are you telling me that you can really notice a difference or is it something we tell ourselves because we have a need to fettle/upgrade to make ourselves feel better?

For something like a DMR where you want super fast trigger response on Semi then yes, precocking does make a difference. On an MP5? Probably pointless.

I'd say the exact opposite, for the very simple reason that if you're respecting your DMR MED then the extra few milliseconds are unlikely to matter, but if you're up close and personal, it can do.  I love the handiness of my MP5K in CQB, but the trigger travel and semi-auto response left a lot to be desired.

Can't really compare the two.

Leviathan has better MOSFETs, more features, BT, data logging, trigger, etc etc.

Perun is half the price but offers what I'm after at the moment.

Sadly the leviathan can only be purchased via socom tactical minus all the normal choices you'd get from the manufacturer.

The Perun doesn't lose its settings and how much of the "ooh shiny" stuff on the Leviathan do you actually need/use?

Precocking is useful for both; getting a shot off quickly when you pull the trigger is important at both short and long ranges.  However, I have never quite understood why folk run DMRs.

I don't know really, probably none, altho I don't really need any of it I suppose. Just a MOSFET to protect the switch contacts.

I can see fast trigger being useful regardless of the gun unless it's full auto.

Much of shooting is feel, or not having to do thing and just be able to shoot.

Granted in Airsoft we have few of the real problems in shooting and if it were a no brainer (thank you America) everyone would use precocking all the time.

Precocking is useful, as is high trigger sensitivity; both help you get shots off more quickly, which is a good thing.  

What is this "full auto" that you speak of?

Eh. If you can predict where someone will be in 1.25 seconds, then you can predict it for 1.3 seconds, at least in enough cases that it won't measurable alter your winr8.  That's very different to playing Whack-a-Molle at 15 feet indoors.

Running these two together for chuckles.  Join usssss, accept the scope and bipod as your personal airsoft saviour.
