I actually like it, what would you say the angle is on the grip frame?
20 to 25 degree range probably, so it would be like a 65 to 70,Originally Posted by A-Tach-One

Yep I would own one, it looks kinda cool.
I wonder if I could rig it to run on CO2.....
Well lets see the numbers on this one. Or is it hype? Whats the fps on every ball at 15bps.Outstanding velocity consistency
Plus minus one would be Outstanding.
What's the copper/brass thing at the front of the ASA?

I like it. It's practically priced and looks light as hell.

So all the markers have sent their "helpers" to make an ubermarker. I like it.
Hahahahahaha. That was awesome! Just what I needed to start the day!Originally Posted by doc_Zox

So the HPR is in the frame,Electronics in the foregrip, and the on off is attached to the grip.
It won't be terribly bigtime for the simple fact that it lacks upgradability. If the HPR, on off, foregrip, and super light milling are unchangeable like that, then all the user has choice over is the feedneck.
Unless it's got something besides weight going for it (i.e. - efficiency, durrability, recoil, etc.) I don't impacting anything except ION sales. Hopefully it's not a LPRless Spoolvalve (shocker-clone).
And it's ulgy IMO.
it's an inline popitOriginally Posted by Pneumagger
The main thing they were trying to do is make it Small hence the name "Mini" so I am guessing they saved aesthetics for bare minimum body weight for those of you highlighting the look of it.
Honestly it doesn't look that bad considering how much aluminum they had to work with. and it's a pretty innovative design with all the norms out of electronics in grip, external air, aesthetically milled bodies. I think Empire, or whoever made it for Empire (Simon?), did a good job of creating something original, small, and hopefully a killing machine.
the fore grip seems a tad small to stuff a 9volt in there:
check out the bore size for the bolt
the red line is the diameter of the rear plug
it falls outside of the body
the yellow line is the available real estate
Nasty. What kind of hell spawned gun is this.
I'll have to take it out to dinner and a movie first. Will it go see AVP? - Halliday On "Will you date my valve?"
It is NOT an inline poppet in the sense like a conventional poppet gun, or Bob Longs new gun.Originally Posted by Tool-of-death
It does have a poppet. But it doesn't have a ram or a hammer hitting it...
rotational poppet?
Also, I guess alot of guns could probably run off of 6 volts (4AAA) that might be in the foregrip.
The only thing that really worries me is the pricetag. I hope hope they dont pull an SP move and go with 2000 series aluminum. Anything this skimpy better have at least 6000 to keep rigidity and decent tolerences.
Nope.Originally Posted by Pneumagger
It's 6061 high quality aluminium IIRC.
The fore grip holds a single 9Volt batter.
Wow, this seems great. I'm definitely buying one if they really go for $450.
So the bolt is small as hell meaning it probably doesn't have a lot of kick and probably doesn't require a lot of air to move?...that is if it has an LPR of any sorts.
Disclaimer: I am guessing...I am no expert on bolt/air power mechanics.
Now I know what I'm getting for christmas.
Is there any more info about the internals?

manike, I'll trade you an emag for this...lol.
Any info about max ROF and efficiency.
since the AEDES isent coming out any time soon I think I might just pick this one up.Originally Posted by Pronby
Assuming it's possable to run it on CO2 that is.
looks better then an ION! I like the price. Ill try to get one once I read all the hype driven buyer reviews.
