Pro/Carbine 2-finger grip

In My Sights · 05-06-2008, 11:03 AM

I was just wondering if anyone has used the Allen Products 2-finger grip and what they thought about it. I have a Pro/Carbine and an acquaintance is parting his grip. I was just wondering if it would be worth picking up (saddly he is not local, so I can't try it).

Thanks for any input.

If you like double triggers, it's definitly a good idea. But it doesn't really increase the rate of fire much.

I am not looking to increase my rate of fire, more curious about the trigger feel. Does it lighten up the trigger pull? Shorten it at all? I am simply looking for a review of sorts from someone who has used one.

well you could also buy a metal safety that does shorten the pull tremendously from Eric, aka First Out, and put a sl-68 II trigger spring in replace for the stock one. ProCarbine
there is a review on the frame there too and the other stuff is for sale in the sale part.

back in the good old days ... ok, a year and a half ago, my pro/carbine was the marker I always used, and I was introduced to the joys of tinkering by tricking it out. *sigh*

Anyway, one of the things I did was hack apart the stock frame and put in a double trigger, complete with homemade trigger guard out of bar stock. Adding in an sl-68II trigger spring, and I was outshooting my revvy 12v x-board. This meant that I would occasionally pinch a paintball, which means that I would pull the trigger and nothing would happen, and I'd have to pull back the hammer to reset the marker.

Blah blah blah, the point is if you are handy with a hack saw and sand paper, you can probably find the trigger by itself for a lot less $$ and mod your frame. On the other hand, once you've hacked your frame, there's no going back.

Fair enough, but there is a way forewards. Just need a set of cocker pneumatics.
