It is well known that when you pull the trigger (the second stage) of the Morini 162-el you also pull a micro-switch which gives power to the percussion mechanism etc. etc. You can also 'feel' that micro-switch, if you pull the trigger with the power set 'off'.
It seems that the MatchGuns MG1-el has a very different 'feeling' when you pull the trigger (the second stage). Much more like a mechanical trigger. Is it possible that it does not use a micro-switch but another device? I mean something like the usual sear disengagement, which - in this case - gives power to the percussion mechanism?
Anyone?

Indeed, it's completely different from the 162E mechanism - no switch at all. The shot is released when the electrical contact between the trigger and a steel bolt in the frame is broken. So the only thing you feel is the 2nd spring engaging. On the MG's I've seen so far, the timing is not adjustable, so it's not always perfect, and not the same on every gun. IF it is a good one, the feeling is crisper (IMHO) than the 162E.
