Planning on getting a MINI...

stimpy · 07-25-2008, 01:01 PM

wondering which upgrades, if any, i should get...
any suggestions on bolts? the MRT looks promising...
are the spring kits worth it?

also, any opinions/thoughts/comments on the overall marker would be appreciated; thanks.

The latest Mini's from KEE really need nothing to perform well. Throw on a tank, and a loader, and you are ready to roll. Start with a barrel if you do not have a favorite Cocker threaded one yet. In the Mini, the bolt upgrade is only to improve efficency. The New Designz bolt and spring kit seems to be the most popular. The MRT bolt has not been received very well. If the gauge on the Mini you purchase is a 0-600, you may want to find a 0-300 to replace it.

Empire revolver barrel kit, NDZ bolt and spring, Board if you play tournys, stock if you play semi.

just picked up a gloss blue with black parts.... WHY AREN'T MORE PEOPLE BUYING THESE?!?!?!?!?!

i think a new bolt is in the future (i don't mind the kick, but if it can be lessened this would be one smoooooth marker).

my only grip is the lack of an on/off... i don't like trying to unscrew a pressurized tank... perhaps an on/off adapter in between? anyone sell those?

my friend jeremy owns one and ive fired it a few times. the frame is paper light. reminded me of a phantom in terms of weight. fun lil electro that doesn't break the bank. i couldn't tell you why people dont buy more. maybe not enough name recognition ( ie 98, ion, ego,) or advertising?

I don't understand it either.
They are fantastic markers. I used mine lots in tournaments and open play. Easy to use, and easy on paint, consistent.

I needed a smart parts on/off to fit my long arms with a 45/45 and I liked a 14 inch boomstick to balance it out.
The trigger is not the best, but I never switched it out.
