Can someone tell me if an invert mini is worth 130$ used. Also is there a place to buy a piece for the feedneck because its missing a screw. Also I screwed my 68/45 in there and there was a leaking sound but when I shot it the sound was gone. Is that regular with minis?

No leaking sound is normal for any paintball gun. And you will need more than a screw, because most of the feedneck is missing, and in its current state it is useless. I'd offer 100 bucks because it leaks and the feedneck doesn't work.

Join me, put this in your sig and don't feed the fish.

Guns usually leak when you first air them up, can't say I've encountered it on a Mini though, usually on a gun with a macro. Even if it does leak theres just a couple of orings that seals the ASA to the frame, its probably those.

The Mini isn't the most amazing gun ever made but at that price I'd say go for it. Any missing parts can be had from KEE for free if they're feeling generous on that day.

Yes, try $150 depending on the version. The screw you can buy a standard one that fits.
Also your cup seal may be broken, i'm not familiar with inline poppits.

Give me gunz for my gunz.

In my experience, leaks that go away after a few shots are usually indicative of well worn parts or o-rings that are soon to be bad. Not a deal breaker, but something to consider.

So id need to buy a new feedneck or get the parts, possibly a new ASA, lube,alan keys, o rings, or just send it to KEE. this seems tedious in my opinion should I make him drop it to 100$ or just forget the deal in general. I already have 2 eteks but my dad wants his own gun. And I figured this would do but telling him these requirments will most likely turn him away. Plus the board in the gun wouldn't turn off. Mike said that it was hit or miss w/ the board and I think this one is a "miss"

You don't need to buy any of that crap. If you call up KEE and ask for a screw kit for a Mini feedneck they'll send you it for nothing, and you don't replace an ASA because its leaking.
