If you want to go small and light - you'll want to replace the body on the Minimag for starters. The Minimag body is actually longer and heavier than a standard Automag body. The reason the Minimag was called "mini" was because it came with a vertical ASA instead of a backbottle adapter, so the overall gun with a CO2 tank attached vertically was shorter than with the tank in it like a shoulder stock. The new ULE body from AGD is really the way to go here - it's the shortest and lightest body available from AGD. Also, since it uses cocker threaded barrels you can use barrels that are thinner and lighter weight than the barrels that use the Automag style twist lock attachment system.
