Abstract:
A method of assisting the movement of a trigger between a firing position and a resting position to increase the rate at which paintballs can be fired from a paintball gun, the method comprising the steps of:positioning a primary magnet in the trigger of the paintball gun, the primary magnet being oriented such that the poles of the primary magnet extend along the line of movement of the trigger between the resting position and the firing position; and positioning a secondary magnet behind the trigger of the paintball gun, the secondary magnet being oriented such that the poles of the secondary magnet extend along the line of movement of the trigger between the resting position and the firing position; wherein the poles of the secondary magnet are oriented such that the secondary magnet repels the primary magnet when the trigger moves toward the secondary magnet.
