It's a black mini with about 3 hours of laser time

Cool. So the black that remains is basically what's left of the anno. Durable and really nice. What was the cost if I may ask? Oh, and was it done with a 3D laser engraving machine, or by free hand?

Very cool! If I had to guess, lasermygun.com did it... I'd also guess ODD, but I think they are on a bit of a break from taking any work.

You honestly thing Styg would go back to ODD after the Nightmare before X-mag debacle?

What'd you get on the Luxe, Wyn?

It was artwork laid out on a machine for the work, this would have taken an eternity by hand.

Tikis Paintball of Tampa did the work
http://www.tikispaintballoftampa.com/laser.html

Rates are on their site, and this was a "Type B" charge. They offer free or 1/2 price laser if you buy your gun through them. I saw their current skull pattern and had to do a variation with Jack skulls once I saw it.

I am pretty impressed with the way it came out. It appears the new Minis have a lot tougher anno on them than the originals did too.

I am usually not a big fan of engraving. I liked your nightmare X. The mini looks fabulous. That will definitely turn heads wherever you go.

well that just made up my mind on where I am sending a gun to get lasered. That looks great.

The whole thing is great, awesome attention to detail, and I love the custom grips, nice aftermarket trigger, Empire ultra low profile feedneck and Prophecy. I don't think you could get a lower/smaller/tighter set up. It's sweet. :cheers:
