Invert mini advice needed

yeah for sure if you shoot both you'll know what you prefer. While parts like the trigger and feedbeck are nicer in metal, the composite parts are generally pretty tough and aren't going to break easily unless you really rattle them. Despite being composite, the etha trigger is a lot more adjustable and i personally prefer that shape (although it's probably just what i'm used to). However there's no disputing that the mini grips are definitely going to be a bit nicer in the hands, although its again personal preference because the mini does feel quite thick compared to an etha.
the biggest difference between the two that you'll notice is comfort because the mini is a very short gun (which some love) and the etha is much longer (which others love).
EDIT: its a personal preference thing but you've got the macroline v internal gas line dilemma as well. If a fault develops, having a macroline gun allows you to gas up the gun with the gripframe off to help locate leaks and also won't risk leaks if any gripframe screws happen to wiggle loose or you bash the gripframe out of place, which can cause the orings to unseat. the obvious argument for having no macroline is that it's out of the way for you and isn't going to give you any problems because of a done in bit of macroline.

I didnt mean it sounds loud, more it just sounds pingy and wierd. having said the negative parts on the etha, in comparison with a mini, the ethas asa with on off is a plus, so is its barrel ( i like a 14 incher). Like i said people will disagree with my oppinions on markers as i will theirs, but having owned a few markers now, two of the main things i look for in a marker is how it feels in your hands (which only you can decide), and can it get the paint you shoot down the barrel without smashing somewhere beforehand...
Out of curiosity what is your budget? X

oh well yeah i'll give you that it definitely pings! to be honest both guns really do have their pros and cons and a lot of it will definitely come down to what feels nicer to shoot in the hands of individuals.
however, going by the recent rant i've had over on the kee forum, i'll definitely say that my experience with planet eclipse tech support is 200x better than kee's.
I have to disagree with you again liam lol. Ive had nothing but great service from kee, also from eclipse, but if you send a marker to eclipse for a service, dont they charge £30 odd? Plus you postage costs... I realise its not something people have done often, or ever but the fact remains. X
I wish i could be in the same position! Currently on my second poor stint with them where i need to keep chasing up to get an answer out of them.

Can't honestly say what the cost of a service is, only ever sent a gun in for parts/repair.
Well if you tend to acumulate spare cash quickly, my advise would be save another £100, buy a new axe, new mask, thena second hand rotor off this forum and youd be fit as a butchers dog. X
I see this post when you put it up, i had a prophecy, far too complicated looking for me. X
