Scotch 3M sticker dealies, so I had a few tries to get it right. When I finally got it into a position that seemed to work, I got to the calibrating. I first tried it out on the current 800 lb. gorilla of FPSs, Black Ops 3. The concept is simple enough. Screw down the depressor until your gun starts to fire, then dial it back a hair. Next, hold down the trigger and screw the trigger stop until, you guessed it, the gun stops firing, and dial that one back a hair too. Bam! You're the new sheriff in town! Right?

Not a good thing for today's fast-paced world. More importantly though, it just didn't feel sturdy enough. If you're serious enough about games to buy peripherals like this, you're serious enough to squeeze the triggers hard enough to give yourself carpal tunnel.

With a little more work and precision in their design, combined with a better, stronger adhesive solution, these could really help the hardcore gamer on a budget.

Give these things a pass, shell out the cash for a scuf, or sac up, buy some set screws, and put em in yourself on the cheapy cheap.
