Just how mini is the Mini?

[Milkweb]

Looking at getting my first speedball marker and some minis are bargains 2nd hand. Just wondering how small they really are?
I haven't particularly got small hands so is it work looking for something else?

Cheers

They are compact... Can't speak for the newer models but I had a mini and it was awful.
Awkward to programme and awkward to maintain.
Worth paying a little more and getting an Eclipse if you can. Something like an Etek you'll pick up for a similar price mate.

My son had a Mini and it was brilliant.

Programme it once, light service after use, job done.

Impressed me every time I used it.

Minis are great guns. The programming is a little laborious but maintenance is easy and they're solid little shooters. I love them

I had my eyes set on an axe but they don't come up for sale as often. I think I'd rather get something that doesn't have such a divide in opinion (until I get to hold one and decide for myself!).

Cheers for the help lads

If you're anywhere near holmbush on the 6th of november, for the woodland masters, drop me a message on here, I can bring a mini , a mini gs, and axe, an axe pro a vanquish or any marker you care to mention from the 80's up until the present day. you name it I've got it. can't say fairer than that.
You don't even have to buy one off me, you can just try one and see what you like.

^^ when I say name it and I got it, I only have two eclipse markers, never been a fan, so anything other than eclipse stuff.^^

Haha you are a solid bloke mate! I really appreciate the offer but I'm up in Aberdeen If you're ever up that neck of the woods...

Had a go with one at training a few weeks ago, seemed to shoot well enough, good for a snake player as nice and compact etc

used one for a few seasons playing D1 Millenniums (the old SPL) and Im 6ft 3in, large hands etc etc. It is compact, but the grip is the same size as any gun.
