Ive even posted this in my review of the mini.
i really am truly worried about losing the foregrip of the mini durring a dive or some how snapping it off.
the reason im worried is because ive broken the foregrips off of other guns (like spyders, a friends ion, ect.) and now im worried about snapping my electrical board, and even causing damage to my sensor board, while playing, i mean heck! the thing is only held on by two screws!
is it just me whos worried about this problem? or am i just causing ripples in the water for nothing?
thoughts/opinions?

Well the good news is if you ever break or lose it, you can just buy another one. The foregrip with board slides vertically along the trigger guard, once all the screws are removed. Check out some of the disassembly videos of it on youtube, you'll love it. No complex wiring is involved between foregrip and body, and foregrips with differently programmed boards can easily be slid right on and screwed on... no problem.

ummm.. don't do that?
If you are prone to sticking your marker in the dirt then I guess it doesn't matter what marker you have.
I am not trying to rip you down, but if you bash the foregrip into the ground thats probably going to cause some damage.
I mean it's like sliding into a nacho and getting stuck under it. There is just no way to prevent that except to say, don't do that.

I have given my mini more heck than it desirves and I already have a few scratchs to prove it. It is more durable than you would think. even though it is light, it feels heavy for how small it is and that is because it is well build and made of thick material. If you manage to break the forgrip in a dive, you would break any grip off of any gun. and at least an explosion wont be involved with the mini

Sounds to me you need to be a little less rough with your markers bud. Learn to hold your gun in the air somewhat when you take a dive. And there is no wiring to mess up. Although you would end up buying a new board (which easy as hell to disassemble).
Just donīt land on your marker, learn to dive properly

actually moose has got the best point, the mini is prolly the marker to break the for grip of since it just slides on and off and there is nothing really complicated involved except the 2 wires, all u need to to is buy a new one, much easier fix than breakin a regulator

Unless you snap the board in the process. Then it will be much more expensive then replacing a reg. But i guess that gives you a good excuse to buy an aftermarket board.

duuude nah, 1) u cant snap the board because its in the foregrip and nawt attached to the body at all, if its gunna break itd break at the joint between the foregrip and the body and 2) the stock board and the foregrip arent expensive at all and would proly come packaged neway plus u got a nice lil warranty on the mini that might cost u shipping at most
