I recieved a Trilogy Autococker in the mail a couple weeks ago, and I plan on using it at the Canobie Big Game tomorrow (sunday 4/20) The one thing is the trigger pull on the marker is atrocious as far as autocockers go, so I ordered a timing shaft from Techt.com

I got it in this afternoon, no instructions came with it, but knowing how autocockers work I quickly figured out how to install it, and got to work timing it as tightly as I can. Prior to getting the shaft, I threw a Taso Hump-back frame I had sitting on a Sniper on the marker since that 1.5 pivot frame is AWFUL. With the slider frame it was actually a little worse, not impossible to time it reliably, but it was much too long, almost a centimeter pull.

When I swapped out the timing shafts, I then tweaked the new one to the point where dry-firing it with tissue paper over the feedneck resulted in the tissue paper getting sucked into it. I then set the trigger stop right after where the three-way reset, it came to about six and a half millimeters. I decided I could do better. I pulled up the hammer lug to the point that the sear would trip just before the front surface of the timing rod slot engaged the rod and re-adjusted the timing rod to match, and I got the trigger pull down to between 3.5 and 4.5 millimeters. That one change alone and my trilogy is now a beast, my 12 volt revvy struggles to keep up with it, I don't get any chops, but when I really start railing on the trigger I'll get gaps in the stream of shots. I can still short-stroke if I try, but in gameplay, it's not going to happen.

Overall, this is the part that with a little tweaking knowhow can turn a Trilogy from a mediocre effort to create a unique entry level marker, to a legitimate autococker that will run with the best of them. If you know how to adjust an autococker and want to try a trilogy, don't do so without one of these. I'll give this review an update Tomorrow evening after the Canobie Spring shoot, I intend to use this gun as my primary now that I've got this marker ready to go.

trilogies are great guns and really with a PPS LPR and adjustable tech T timing rod they can be just about as good as any other cocker. The stock 4 way does the job fine as does the ram.

It works great when it fit the frame, but some frames, like the Eclipse frame, are to wide at the trigger hole, bending the shaft outwards. And the shaft bends really easy, the metal seems really soft, but luckily it bends back just as easy. I have had luck with WGP frames DYE and System X frames.

The shaft isnt that hard to grind down neither is a trigger frame. CCM frames require the rod to be clearanced too. The adjustment should have been located elsewhere but unfortunately it isnt.

Certainly a frame like the AKA hinge will not work, where the timing rod is recessed into the frame.

roller sear+plus double hinge equals near perfection

I turned my son's Trilogy pro into a pump, not as smooth as my sniper, but just as accurate. It is a cheaper way to convert an autococker into a pump for those who want to dabble in the fine art of pumpalocity. PMI has trilogy conversion kits.
