I can't believe you guys are arguing about autotriggers and the possible merits of banning them in a pump league. Don't you think gaining critical mass for such a thing to succeed won't be difficult enough without adding additional hurdles? The vast majority of players that exist outside the MCB/SCP/etc circle see the fact that you have to pump the gun as a major limitation in itself, if they are aware of it at all. Then you have a chicken and the egg scenario when convincing a manufacturer to take a risk on producing parts specifically for an unproven tournament series. Combine that with the bad economy and all your going to do is exclude 99% of nelson owners leaving sheridan based guns where the autotrigger is more of an add on and end up figuratively shooting yourselves in the foot.

If you want to raise the bar on entry, that's fine. Just don't be surprised when the wealthy and heavily sponsored are the only ones that show up to play. Kind of sounds like what's happened with the ailing high rate of fire supergun tourney ball doesn't it?

As far as I'm aware as long as the reg doesn't hold pressure when changing 12ies then it should be stock legal. Otherwise it could be considered a check valve.
