Finally managed to convert a friend to airsoft, after a tour of various sites around berkshire/hampshire it seems her favored style of play is hiding behind trees at the rear. So we can actually team-up rather than her watching me running around getting shot in the distance through a scope, I've bought a classic army SL8, with the intention to put it up to 450 fps and lock to semi-only (i'll not call it DMR, unless it stands for Dis Muppet's Rifle). I know it's far from a great 'DMR' choice, possibly one the worst, but it looks cool and it's modular enough to make into a G36K/C with another hand-guard and barrel/hop if i change my mind or persuade my friend to push forward a bit more. Although she seems to very much enjoy the opportunity to use her significant ex's ridiculously over-spent M14 based 'DMR' she kept after the split (along with at least half a testicle), i get the impression his face is getting applied to everyone she pulls the trigger at
I've done enough gearbox tinkering and read enough guides (the holy-grail one is brill) to be able to stumble through upgrading the internals (although only need a few bits as CA SL8 comes with quite a few aftermarket bits installed).
However when it comes to the trigger and semi-only I've encountered a lack of relevant google, due to it having a fire-selector with only safe/semi settings and full-auto being facilitated by a 2 stage trigger. All the suggestions i've found seem to be about locking the selector and I've never tinkered with triggers before or made a gun semi-only before...
Can anyone recommend a pimpingly snappy trigger unit to replace the 2 stage with, and the best method to permanently make it semi only on a V3 gearbox (considering it only has a safe/on selector). I will be putting in a mosfet with active break;
