Assembly Manual

DesignOverview

MintRay stands out as a remarkably safe alternative to traditional airsoft guns. The key differentiator lies in our high-speed low-force striking mechanism. The low muzzle energy (<0.05 Joules) of the tic tac ensures that you feel every bullet without getting hurt.

For reference, airsoft has muzzle energy in the 0.5J to 2.0J range; around 10 to 40 fold higher than MintRay

Why Tic Tacs?

We chose Tic Tacs over traditional BBs or printed bullets due to their biodegradability and non-toxic nature. Its safe when accidentally ingested by kids.

Recommendations:

  • Age: MintRay is intended for adults & teenagers. Young children should be supervised by an adult during assembly and play to ensure a safe experience.

  • Color: Avoid choosing full black / full silver colors during printing to prevent any confusion with real guns. Opt for toy-like vibrant & distinct color combinations for safe differentiation.

As you might have noticed MintRay looks like something out of a Sci-Fi movie, It is intentionally designed not to look like a real firearm or a replica. Do not modify this to look like a real gun.

Safety & Responsibility:

  • Common Sense: Users must exercise common sense and respect for others when using MintRay. Avoid using the toy gun in situations that may cause discomfort or distress to others
  • Safe Shooting Practices: Outdoor play is recommended; avoid shooting at close range to prevent any unintended impact.
  • Legal: MintRay is designed as a recreational item and should be used responsibly and legally.
