the minimag description is as follows: Black cradle, Black gasthru grip, Custom painted body, Black smartparts barrel.

so what do you guys all think?

Well the minimag sounds stock. I myself would definitly want an
intelliframe on it. And with it being "custom painted", its probably a
hopper left kind. I myself wouldn't want a mag unless upgraded (I
have/had) one.

I'd go electro cocker.

Many people have Mags/Cockers here so ask some questions about
them. I had Mag Craze for about 2 months then it wore off and I'm onto
something else now.

well i don't know much about either right now so, i will ask.

do you guys think that i would be better off getting a automag or would a cheap minimag that i found be a pretty good find. whats your opinion on that. and also...

these autocockers are on the higher end side compared to the cheapest ones i see my field renting out, right? or from the information, probably. (they're probably like $100 or so)

Automags are pretty much the same as Minimags. Minor differences.

If they are trilogy autocockers, I definitly wouldnt get a mech one. Mags
are simpler.

I don't think there's a single paintball gun yet invented without moving parts.

Mags are blowforwards. They have a bolt that moves forward (I believe movement is caused by air pressure in the valve) then returned by a large spring.

I don't think much can beat the design of an Automag.  The simplistic design is almost flawless.  Most of the major Colorado scenario team players are using Automags, and that speaks volumes to me.
