ok, here is your answer. there are two triggers there for a reason, the rear one sets the front on into a hair trigger. you can fire the gun by pulling just the front trigger, but it will travel about half an inch before it fires. by pulling the rear one first, then pulling the front one, the gun goes off immediately. by the way, they make a replace for this setup that only has one trigger and eliminates one very noisy click. hope this helps. by the way, there are no dumb questions, maybe dumb answers.
