consequence if I don't break in Mini?

[G3T_IN_MY_B3LLY]

I kind of need my money and i'm buying it now, but I don't have the time after getting it to break it in (tourney) will teh gun even be worth using?

if your worried about it, turn the velocity adjuster all the way in on the back cap, put it on 20 bps full auto, and fire, the bolt will still fully cycle and will use much less air allowing you to break in your marker faster, and giving you more shots.

how long would u have to hold it

[Patphil]

you should do it until air runs out, which is a long time. if your willing to spend some money though, get the NDZ v2 bolt/spring kit. the springs are softer so there is no break in needed at all. also improves consistency and efficiency.

Seriously, the Mini break-in isn't as big of a deal as some people make it out to be. If you don't have time to break it in, try it out and just see if you like it out of the box. Me and my group have had 5 Minis and we pretty much just used them straight out of the box with no break-in and everyone's been happy.

It doesn't take that long, really - I did the break-in with the 3-tank regular velo method, and that went quick enough. There's always enough standing around at the beginning of a tourney to get stuff like this done. Set it for 20BPS and let it do the work on full auto. You can probably get a twist-wrap and place it around the trigger and frame once you get it going, then go off to listen to refs/set up other stuff/whatever.

I never even broke mine in.. (Uh-Oh)

[toofless916]

lol...dont you break it in as you use it?

[Bomber34]

Yea, I think the point of breaking it in is to give it better efficiency and better total "flow" of the gun.. idk though, lol. Just a guess.
