My Ion has been wonderful to me with never giving me any problems, but i was tired of the "you must be a noob because you have an Ion" type of people, even though they get owned by my Ion in the end. So I had to pick something up that was not too expensive but still in the mid-high end class. So this is where this 06 minion comes in. I always loved the minion since it came out. I always wanted one but the price tag was out of my range. Now that the 07s are out with 08s on the horizon (even though there won't be any 08 minions) I found one for a good price. $280 shipped and paypal'd. The guy is even going to rebate me $10 so I can replace the battery harness. The thing is barely used and works flawlessly. It seriously rips. It also came with a tadao board so I can shoot psp, nppl and all that good stuff even though I like semi the most. I'll get a vid up later.

*******VIDEO********

Now for the eye candy.

I switched out the stock barrel tip with my ultra evil tip because i like the fade on it and the barrel needed black on it to match the rest of the gun.

Nice 'Trix.

I actually like the milling of the Minion better than the Dye or Proto Matrices, and they seem to be going cheap. Too bad I'm trying to phase out batteries...

Looks good. Any plans for it? UL?

I love the milling on the minion much better than the protos, that's why I got the minion over the pm6.

I would like to put a UL on it, but I would need to find a cheap one like $50 , but I don't really feel like spending much money on this gun any time soon.

I do like Minions, they look smaller than their DM/PM counter-parts too.

My dog usually runs away from a paintball gun, while your dog runs to it.  Very interesting...

(In case no one caught that, his dog is in the video)

My dog likes to chew on paintballs. I found one in his mouth and his mouth was a bright green from the fill. He isn't really scared of the minion yet because I haven't shot air at him yet. He doesn't like when I point the Ion at him because I shot air at him once with that.

Nah...they were owned by "you" and your Ion.
The gun really has very little to do with it.

+1 for "Lil' Smoky" grill
+1 innovative use of Hammock
+1 Dog bravery

My brother won that grill from Marlboro. Funny thing is he doesn't smoke and he also got a kit worth $120 and tickets to the Texas Motor Speedway for some Indy races. Good deal for it being free and him never ever smoking.

My dog likes to chase paintballs and she isn't scared of them at all I accidently shot her once and she kinda jumped but didn't seem to really care. She loves to eat paintballs too. After I went paintballing in my mini course she went in there and came out covered in blue paint from eating the paintballs.

I don't get why they like the taste of the paintballs. I had put some extremely spicy sauce on my feet because he likes to bite feet. Ended up he just licked it all off. I would have been begging for milk because that stuff was hot and I can stand a lot of spicy foods.

Ya one time my dog was in our house and i was eating nachos and put some hot sauce in my hand and gave it to her she made the weirdest face i have ever seen a dog make. She ate it all then sat there for a few secounds, but them she just started licking the top of her mouth like I had given her peanut butter.

You shot your dog?  How mean, even with only air.

When I use to play at my friends house, It was like a spaced out speedball field with random stuff like a shed, umbrellas, benches, sandboxes, wheelbarrows, you know, the crappy homemade ones, the dog would go out, and lay in the middle of the field during games.
