Depends on your play style I guess… ?

Depends if you want to rattle or not. If you buy 5 hi caps it's worth remembering that you won't need as many to hold the same amount of ammo!
You could also look at King Arms mid caps https://airsoft.tiger111hk.com/Airsoft-Magazine-Std/Mid-AEG-Magazine/c43_261/p2687/King-Arms-G3-Series-130-rounds-Magazines-Box-Set-(5pcs)/product_info.html?osCsid=qtvcedihlghvj7du2ak30iaj97

I’m not a big fan of the rattling or winding but it’s over double the price to get mid caps.
with regards to the King arms ones - thanks for the suggestion but they aren’t compatible with the TM G3 - only ones I’ve seen to be compatible are TM, JG and CA.

I'm all about the hi-caps tbh, even though that's not 'cool'.
If you don't do milsims and you don't mind sounding like a rogue pair of maracas I'd go hi-cap.

OR just get two JG hi-caps for now start saving and then get the mids at a later date ?

I run KA mids in my JG, ergo they should work fine in a TM seeing as the JG is a copy of the TM.

Highly dependant on your style. I'd go midcaps over highcaps any day of the week because I don't shoot that much and I dislike the tactical maracas of highcaps. I mean, I play with GBBRs and snipers, so low ammo count is just my normal.
However, for most people I'd say just run a few highcaps. Unless you want the stealth of mid/lowcaps (and even then highcaps can still be quiet if you're not sprinting around the place) or the immersion of having to reload in the field, highcaps are just better.

I'm not you, but you're asking me so I say mid caps, 5 will get you 350 guaranteed kills, though deduct about 50 for the random plinking that's obligatory whilst waiting for the game to start. Still, 300 kills dude, that's enough, don't be greedy.

If you're up against the puffa jacketed teen terrors then 3 high caps will get you about 6 acknowledged kills...

You can get rid of a lot of it by brimming the reservoir, covering the top with your thumb and shaking the mag to get the bbs to settle, and repeating that a few times until the bbs can't move at all. You can dive around all day and they won't make a peep until you start using it.

Well, you can counter a lot of the rattle when you're holding the gun, something you can't do when it's in your kit.

Rattle mags irritate me. Heavy and loud.
