Hey I was wondering, has anyone tried a sly barrel on the mini? If so how does it work or what does work?

Any barrel on any marker will have the same performance.

Any Autococker threaded barrel will work with the Mini. The problems you experienced with the Proto barrel could be due to a dirty barrel, low quality paint, or a poor fit of the ball in the barrel.

i put stinger through my proto barrel(clean) on my proto worked fine.
i put stinger through my invert barrel(clean) on my invert worked fine.
i put stinger through my proto barrel(clean) on my mini and i made soup:(

alot of people have been saying that some autococker threaded barrels did not screw into the mini, one rumor i heard, might wanna look into that,

that was also one of the problems fixed when they re released the mini on feb. 7th so that problem is only on the minis released in december.

its just a rumor but something you might wanna consider

that rumor is true too. Older smart parts barrels dont fit. And some people have trouble with lucky barrells, and some people say that lucky fit fine.

Ego Shaft barrel doesnt fit on my mini, but the stock Etek barrel works perfectly.

hey xtreme if i were you man, id sell the old version mini (because im assumin thas what you have) for $450 and then jus preorder the new version for $400 because you could 1) make 50 bucks and 2) get the fixed better version of the invert mini, might be a good idea.
