I just noticed now that Z uses the term "triger mech".

Is this an abbreviation (as used by Z)? There’s no punctuation to indicate it. Is it a common term/short form? Do people say "the gun had a faulty trigger mech, so I bought a new one"?

In short, could it be significant to an extent? Indicating a particular occupation, perhaps – or a particular interest in guns, beyond what you’d call normal? The latter has been discussed many times – was Z a hunter, gun buff, someone who frequented shooting ranges, etc? Could his use of this term (if it IS a term and not just a written abbreviation – albeit without punctuation, as said already) be viewed in this light?

Just speculating.

It is just lazy abbreviation, that is common in all countries of the world and not exclusive to Zodiac slang.
