    I love the mini vert, and I like the height of it.

    Also, it's super easy to make thin wood panel grips for it, and then hand sand the contours to closely (depending on your taste) the tapering of the aluminum panels. You could just as easily trace and cut plastic, but the lack of finish options might not be so attractive. See below for my wood grips:

    The only structural aspect that doesn't suit me super well on the MV is the girth of the lower part of the grip (not width, but more the length from front to back of the widest part of the teardrop at the bottom). That, however, is mostly because of a tendon injury to my pinky and the way I'm shaped than the way the MV is shaped.

      The grip sleeve I have is a Pacmyer not Hogue. Here it is on the MV frame.



      It would fit better if the top was trimmed so that it would fit the double trigger guard better. So if you do decide to get one and want some sort of rubber grip for it this could be an option for you.

                  I love Luke's frame. While I'm not a fan of the 90*, the 86* was almost perfect. My only gripe, was being that there were no wrap-around grips available for it. Wrap-arounds are a MUST for me. If I could wrap some 'Dye stickies' around it, I'd be in heaven.
                  I'm just the opposite; the long 90 degree Angel frame is perfect for me and I would err on the side of making it closer to a Y grip than to 86*. Would also prefer rubber grips, I know you can make rigid panels out of just about anything but I have never liked the feel of them.

                  Who else made a 90 degree frame? The only one I owned was an RPG Chimera and I should have never sold it.
                  My feedback

                  Made in USA - it matters.

                      I used a single trigger Vert Mini for a peumag build and I love it. It is on the bulkier side, but I don't actually hold the frame while firing anyway.
