Lightweight elcro under $600

bth9461 · 01-09-2013, 05:06 PM

Looking for one that has Auto Cocker threads, reliability, effient, and light weight. Going to play one handed. Max price is 600 but not opposed to saving some bucks. As long as the gun will hold up. I have all the gear including barrel.

Need a hopper looking for as small as possible profile also. 50-$150

I have a few questions:

1. Explain how does that has any relevance to the thread?
2. Who said it was a "spoolie"?
3. What is an "inline opportune"?

He was asking for a small light electro for under $600, mini is small and light, and you can buy a v3 which is quite reliable and it is pretty good on air. Plus, if you buy it new it is covered under warranty so if anything is wrong they will fix it. IIRC Kee has surprisingly good customer support for what type of company it is.

If you want reliability over smoothness, Etha. That thing is a tank. Theres a video somewhere where a guy hucks it down a gravel road, then lets it sit at the bottom of a creek for a few minutes, then picks it up and it shoots fine.

Check out the vice or G6R, or an ego.

Drone dx or ego.
I had to play one handed for a while too, due to surgery and being in a sling. The ego worked out really well for me. Its the most reliable. The worst thing ever while playing one handed is having to try to fix something. So id play it safe and get the gun thats known to be a work horse and reliable.

What are the differenses between the AXE and the Mini?

Obviously the axe is a longer gun. As such, the bolt is slightly longer on the axe to lengthen the gun, otherwise all the internals are interchangable. Also, the axe comes with an on/off ASA. Lastly, the mini uses the hall trigger while the axe has a microswitch.

the magnetic return trigger is just as good as the microswitch to be perfectly honest.

The mini is a solid gun for the money, you could save a LOT of money getting a used V3.

2011 G6r, you really can't go wrong. They might as well be bulletproof.

Or as someone said earlier, on the flipside if you want to save a few bucks the etha is great (though completely different)

I have an all black axe for sale. I also have an evlution 3 hopper I could throw in for $20. It's not a rotor but it does the job. . .
I need $331 gifted/shipped for the axe. It has a lurker bolt installed and shoots as well as any gun out there.

lmk. thanks

andyschein · 01-12-2013, 11:40 PM

Gen 1 Marqs are nice
Not lighter than the new markers out but can shoot better than most
You can find some in the 200-350 range
just dont buy a mummy

If you are looking for a newer marker i would suggest:
G6r 2011
Axe
Ego 10
Geo +

That is a nice looking gun, I am partial to Black also. Price looks very good for it also. I am considering some of the other options listed above though. I need to put some of these other guns in my hand though. I really need to compare a Mini to the Axe side by side. Plus the Etha, Drone, and the 6GR used or Ego used. I have never really looked at these last 4.

bth9461 · 01-13-2013, 10:03 AM

Any small profile Hopper Suggestions?
