Youve probaly seen it before, but I guess Im posting it again. This is my powder-coated MiniMag. I made the drop and slanted forgrip extender. This is a 12in SP AA barrel on it too.
I love this gun sooooo much! I love everything about it and everything it has showed and brought to me. It has sooo much sedimental value to me. But Im joining a team and Im going for a Paradigm Pro Mag-
Im making about $150 a week now, but I need to buy a new HPA tank, and Halo B. So $450 isnt going to be easy or quick to get. Im also going to need lots of extra money for feild fees and paint if I do or do not join this team. This obviously puts me in a hard situation. So Im also considering selling my cocker. I like the gun, but dont use it too much. There no point to really owning it, except for a good back-up and rental to my friends. I thought about converting it to SC, but obviously I cant afford it. Should I sell it and collect about $150 max?
Please help me decide. IM NOT SELLING HERE!!!11111!!1! -------------

Sell it whole or part it out. I would keep the cocker as a backup or sell the cocker and keep old mag as backup. Whatever works for you  ------------- |

I know. I was in the same situation. I hated selling my mag, but i was
able to make enough money in the sale to make up for the sadness. Sell both. Get the money. Buy the parigadam, be happy |

what in the world did you do to the pneumatics, ive never seen hoses go outside of the reg
i dont think they would be worth much, the cocker less than $100, guessing $50-$75, the mag, slightly more not much IMO, keep both, friends can use them if necessary, i wouldn't put $450 into a mag, save $150 and buy something faster (ION) an Ion can keep up with tournament speeds a little better i think -------------

Thats how the pneumatics came. Dont worry, I rearranged them. I payed just over $100 for the cocker a few months back. Im pretty sure I could get at least $120 for it, no more than $150. The Mag I payed about $120 for in January. It looked nothing like that (right Classic body, stock barrel, 32* POS chrome trigger frame, bullet drop). I think Id get over $150, probaly no more than $250 for it now since its kind of "custom" with the powder coat, and its hard to find a good looking MiniMag these days. I will not buy an ION!!!!! That would be the cheap easy way out, like YWSM and countless others took. This Mag is just sooooooooo much better quality, fast enough and mech, and I know its just so much more durable and reliable than a damn ION. -------------

relax muffin, you wont get more than $100 for the cocker, if you paid $100, why do you think it will appreciate it doesn't work like that
about 1 year, 3 months ago, i bought a 01 rf cocker, bone stock, it looked almost exactly like that, krappy plastic trigger frame stock pneumatics, stock barrel.... for $100 from a shop, the shop paid $70 for it -------------

| Hmmm... I say you part the cocker out, you will probably get more money that way. Keep the mag though. |

| I'd keep the cocker and rent it out. You'll get some cash, and it's a continuous thing. Anyway, I love that mag. I've always wondered what it's worth. |

Meh, Mags can get pretty high in the final minutes on ebay. I think Im going to sell nothing, but have the cocker ready to sell in case I really need the money for fees and paint. AutoMags are great! If you ever shoot one youll be inclined to buy one. I shot maybe ten shots from one and just loved it. They shoot and sound so clean and precise. -------------
