Welcome to AO!
To answer your question: they are functionally the same. The mini has a longer body and comes with a vertical air adapter, whereas the classic doesn't in most cases. But since you're talking about the TKO package, I'd go with the TKO Classic. That way, you DO get the vertical air (AND a foregrip AND hoses) for the same price.

thx alot that really helps.

I like the body on the mini more though, more advice plz.

Do most people use regulaters on their mags, or just take it straight from the air sorse(sp) to the bolt?

The standard mag A.I.R. valve is a regulator in itself, so there is no real need to buy another regulator if you are running nitro, however...

If you plan to run Co2, I have heard great things about getting a palmer reg for the mag.

I guess it depends on your air source. Nitro, or HPA, is a worthwile investment...that way, you can go X-valve when or if you decide you want to.

...i see you're looking into getting a ule body
you can probably re-sell either body for about 45-50 online
but remember if you get a ule body you need to buy a cocker barrel

...i wonder when agd will start selling ule bodies as standard equipment

you might be able to get a better deal if you talk to tunaman
he could probably hook you up with a ule bodied classic for about the same price(im guessing) and you wouldnt have to mess with selling off the stock body and barrel

yeah, IMO the mini is not a good deal, especially if you're looking to get a ULE body anyway.

I'd go with the classic, to me, paying extra for the added length of the body isn't worth it. Although, if I'm not mistaken, the Minimag valve has three repair stars, vs. the classics 1.
