Skladfin · September 5th, 2008, 23:02

ya thats a mag problem 100%

Gunny_McSmith · September 5th, 2008, 23:02

Do you guys know someone that knows alot about airsoft guns and that could repair here in Ottawa and the Outaouais?

Gunny_McSmith · September 5th, 2008, 23:04

wth just got those mags today! After a 2 weeks wait!!!

And is there a way i could fix those mags?

byblos · September 5th, 2008, 23:38

when you dry fire, any air coming out? wait till the next airsoft game and ask to borrow a mag to see if thats the case.

try hitting the mags before loading.. http://www.airsoftforum.com/board/Kw...g-t120435.html and YouTube - misfeeding mag pt 2
some tips: http://filairsoft.com/forum/showthre...492#post270492

also i read that try taking apart the magazine and stretch out the spring.

the mags are double stacking, has absolutely nothing to do with anything else.

Welcome to the club! I bought three Dboys VN style mags and found out they dont work with my metal body. Now I have to go and order new ones....

Gunny_McSmith · September 6th, 2008, 11:12

yup Skladfin you were 100% right!!!!! My MAG brand mags seem to be the source of my problem! I have to hit them before loading or else they wont feed, then they feed almost perfectly on semi (because i sometime have double feeding and even triple!( looks like the same problem I had with my src hi-cap that came with my gun....)) but sometimes i'm able to do small bursts...
so ya it should be the mags...

that means I have to buy other mags!
TM mags? Or any better brands?

TM are pretty much guaranteed, KA should be next in line.

Skladfin · September 6th, 2008, 11:59

TM mags, they work on every gun ive ever had

Gunny_McSmith · September 6th, 2008, 12:09

should i get TM high cap or midcap mags? and does ehobbyasia sells real Tm mags or are they copies?

Skladfin · September 6th, 2008, 12:12

ehobby sells real TM, there are no such things as fake TM mags.

and TM doesnt make midcaps, unless you consider 68 rounds midcaps.

in any case, all TM mags feed 100% perfectly

Gunny_McSmith · September 6th, 2008, 12:22

ok thx man

Sounds like the hop up rubber was installed incorrectly, try it again. Literally, this type of symptoms are easy to generate when the hop up rubber is installed incorrectly, or your C clip (that holds the barrel and hop up unit together) is cracked and allowed your barrel to move forward a bit.

EDIT: And now I see that you are having mag issues. I have some MAG midcaps, never failed on me, but mags should be lubed maybe once per year, load it with oil soaked BBs, unload, run the same BBs through again, unload, then do next mag.

Gunny_McSmith · September 6th, 2008, 14:27

hey CDN_STALKER, I read your profile and you're located in Ottawa!, maybe we could meet, and I could show you my gun and the problem, It's easier to figure out when you see and hear the thing go....

BTW how could the rubber be incorrectly placed?
