So I'm not sure if anyone has made a post about this yet, I've seen a bunch of posts with some fixes that work for some people and not others. Even DartZone released a video where apparently rubbing a q tip on it solves it. Not in my case.
First thing I tried was the rev trigger brace which helped a tiny bit, but not nearly enough.
Next was opening the switch and investigating.
It seems like the little tiny disk that makes contact when you push the actual switch has a tiny, tiny spot of either rust, or some sort of oxidized coating on it from sparking. This is what is causing the inconsistencies. When that disk is pushed just a tiny bit, it works. Which leads me to believe that it only makes contact at one specific spot instead of over the entire disk.
So I flipped it around, and now it works perfectly with no issues. You could most likely add a tiny bit of solder or even just sand it to fix it, but I flipped it around.
Hopefully this is of some help to people in the future looking to figure out why this is happening.
