Empire Mini Upgrade - Foregrip Extender from YDNA

Hi All,

Firstly I'd like to thank YDNA for allowing me to be a beta-tester for this new product. Secondly I'd like to note that this review is my personal opinion, I have no ties to YDNA or his company and will be spending my hard earned money on this product the same as everyone else.

So, I received a raw foregrip extender a few weeks ago, along with instructions on how to install it. As the one I received was raw, the first thing I did was to cover up the screw holes and spray paint it with Krylon Camo Matte Black paint, so that it would closely match my dust black Mini.

The instruction sheet was very clear and concise, with detailed pictures of how the extender should be installed. The extender is mounted using two replacement screws that go into the two front holes in the air transfer plate and is also partially braced with the trigger frame. If you're familiar with taking your mini apart, this installation should take you less than 5 minutes.

After everything was installed and I verified that the board and eyes were still working, I took the Mini out for some test firing. Being more of a woodsballer, I've become used to having front grips on my A5's/X7's/TM-7's/TM-15's etc, and I was very pleased to find that with the front grip now outside the trigger frame, the Mini felt much easier to hold and much more stable as a firing platform. Being able to truly grip the front grip at any level, made a huge difference to me and felt much more natural than the stock mini does.

As you can see from the comparison pictures, this extender actually moves the front grip further forward than the front grip on the Axe, so this is a great option for those Mini owners that have been considering upgrading to an Axe, just buy this and a Relay On/Off and you're 95% of the way there.

So, in summary, I highly recommend this upgrade for those of you who would like a bit more room and a more comfortable front grip.

^^^^ my home made ghetto grips with electric tap around them

so i just got these parts today and all i can say is that they are amazing, the grip extender is awesome it makes the mini fell more masculine, to me the stock version now feels like the gun is week it doesn't feel like anything i would want to thrash around. but anyways it works great, had no trouble installing these parts, and i only have on thing to critisize, Andy could u plz use metric bolts next time, i hated having to rummage through me tool box to get my imperial allen keys out and use the 7/64 wrench on the two included screws.

******GREAT JOB******THANX ANDY******
