    Honest opinions?

    I'm having trouble deciding.... So I'm gonna let the crew at AO gimme some help. I love small fast markers, so let that factor in your thoughts.I am an automagger (I'm up to 4 mags!!!) and am now looking for a new electric marker to replace my BKO. My prcie range is around 300-450.

    I saw a mini with a six inch Apex barrel, a Velocity junior loader and a 45 cu in HPA tank. It was definitely small.

            I just picked up my first emag and love it. A close second would be the mini.

              You will be very hard pressed to find an emag for that price unless you go for an older one with SS body and older emag valve.

              I suggest a cyborg, you can find some for REALLY good prices here and on PBN.

                I was also looking at just the lowers, I have the rest besides a xmag valve. I don't like the way the cyborg looks.

                EDIT: I don't mean to bash on AKA, I just really don't like the look of the milling they have. I think they are a great company, but I have never seen any marker of they'rs that I have liked the milling on.

                  Only markers I will still shoot are AGD and AKA. Both are good for life

                    Right now, I'm definetly thinking either a mini or some lowers and an xmag valve. Used lowers and an x-vlave will cost me what? A used mini will cost me under 300 and a new one under 400.

                    I like the mini's prices...

                      If you decide to go with a used Mini, be sure and watch the board version. There was a problem with version 1 and some users never sent it in for the free upgrade.

                      I really enjoy my Mini. For the price I don't think there is anything better. NDZ has some nice stuff for them to add some "bling"...lol.

                        Actually there was verison 1.1 and 1.1 revision, can't tell the diff from either so try to get rev 1.2 or if it has an aftermarket board. Other than that the mini's a pretty kick *** platform once it is broken in.

                            And thats why youll always be shooting second rate markers, you base things on looks. Theres nothing even remotly wrong with how borgs look. Vikings, well yeah anythign in your price range wont look that pretty. If ya wanna spend 700-1000 you can get a pretty gun.

                            Anyway, onto your prices. A used mini will cost under 300 unless someones trying to scam you (thats my opinion). You can buy BNIB minis for 300 if ya look around (ill direct you where to go if youd like). Emag lowers usually run around 300 and xvalves around 200.

                            Lastly, although minis are very nice guns for the price the feel is a love hate thing. They are insanly small which a lot of poeple dont like (including myself since i have large hands).
