Players who want less upkeep should look at the Tippmann Sierra One, which rates low on maintenance and asks less of you between games. Both fire electronically, but the Invert Mini offers more firing modes for dialing in your rate of fire. At 1.9 lb the Invert Mini is the easier carry over a long day on the field. The Invert Mini is built with collectors and budget players in mind. The Tippmann Sierra One is built with woodsball and scenario in mind. Bottom line: pick the Tippmann Sierra One for easy maintenance and newer players, or the Invert Mini for all-day comfort.
