    I have 4 of them.
    but if you are you are offering on someone elses.
    I think there are a lot of them out there.
    I got mine for 25-50$ a piece.

    There are two different feedneck styles also, one being the taller, not-clamping one (more common, I believe) and the other one being the short, clamping one. I have two of the latter but on eMag style bodies as well. The clamping Minimag ones are really rare and I only recall seeing one so far, to be honest.

    This is the tall one:


    This is the short, clamping one:

    **Diggers also sold just the body and barrel. "Chrome and Teflon bodies are also available separately. Either body comes with a 12 inch J&J ceramic barrel.Price: $225.00"

    My guess would be around 350 for an entire minimag.

    Not mine, unfortunately.

    I have 12,251 pictures of Mags in my Paintball pics collection. Finding a specific one is getting harder! LOL

    so i decided to get it, looks like the feedneck was cut, nice rt valve and some other nice parts...pulled it apart as soon as i got home and saw there was a ult installed...lubed it up and it sealed up nicely, only a problem with the ult because it leaks until i hold down the trigger... but since i havent seen many vert feed minimag bodies i had to pick it up...

    My pics collection isn't on Photobucket, actually. For overall paintball pics I'm now at 43.135 files, 281 folders and 10.3 Gb. I don't only physically collect paintball markers and equipment but virtually as well. I know, call me crazy. LOL

    Nice catch. This is a cut high-rise body. Because it's cut, I'd say it's worth ~$80 or so (the body alone). Still a nice find. I'd replace that feedneck for a clamping one, for sure but that's just me.

    Interesting. It does have the same clamping feedneck that came on some of the Emag ones. From my understanding, Diggers made the CF bodies. I wonder if they just got the feednecks from AGD or wonder if this was some sort of one off? Would be really easy to do.... hmmm.

    kopfjaeger was the AOer who modded the minimag above....

    Actually there was a run of HI-RISE VERTFEED MINIMAG bodies. This is what I used and simply had the feednecks switched from the LO-RISE VERTFEED EMAG/RTPRO body and HI-RISE VERTFEED MINIMAG body.

    I'm curious about post #25 where the guy states that he found the answer to how many CF Minimag bodies were made, but doesn't of course repeat the info... fail.

    So the ones with the lo-rise weren't truly "production", but custom made?

    But then I just found a second one:


    And look at post #9 on that thread:

    And then, look at this reference on post #20:

    Interesting... I'd love to have Tuna jump here and enlighten it a bit for us.
