Ha No I have a WE G18C and also a TM G26 so the 50 round mag will get used, it'not for sale... Only bought the Raven as a back up to the WE as it was cheapish and I was told it was WE compatible so planned on upgrading it but I think it will just sit in it's box unless the WE goes south.  I...

that's what you get for trusting certain online retailers who, when you specifically ask, tell you they are WE compatible and that turns out to be balls. And also when you trust certain airsoft 'Instagrammers' who also work for a certain airsoft magazine... WE mags are meant to fit but, even...

Haha...that's going to go pop in a big way. £60? Oh my aching sides.  Realistically, £20 for parts max! Another weak point of the crappy Raven on display there. Even on my new barely used one the slide visibly lifts when you bang a mag in due to poor tolerances, more than any I have seen before...

Right, quick update from the retailer re:WE magazine compatibility in the Raven...and I quote -  " When we have tested the compatibility, we have found that removing the WE G17 magazine base plate helps lock the magazine in place, so that you are able to use the WE magazines with the Raven...

Haha no worries, maybe when/if they reply to my queries!  I don't normally go on forums but keep seeing 'Its a WE' and 'WE compatible' being bandied about and it just isn't true, or at least the one I have anyway! Maybe its very poor manufacturing tolerances but I don't think so! I've been...

I have both, I bought the Raven as I was after a spare to go with my WE G18C gen3 and was assured by the retailer (one of the main, reputable UK ones) it was WE compatible, they are yet to reply to my email on the issues of compatibility. I can say for sure that the Raven and the WE ARE NOT THE...
