  1. first game for the last 14 months.  proof that expensive doesnt=good

     

    LCT G3A3 mags all feed only half a mag before being unreliable, sometimes feeding, sometimes not (on both 28s and 25s).  £300+ gun £23 mags...

     

    raged onto my backup: CYMA AK74m flawless £100

     

    first time outing for both of them.  the G3 fires like a beast stock, and hop does 0.28's well, its just the damn mags.  wonder if JG mags work?

      Well that sucks balls doesn’t it !🤬

      mite be worth stretching one mag spring a bit and also try filing the BB retainer in the mouth of the feed tube(I use a half round jewelers file)a ‘wee’ bit as well to see if they feed better ? Over the years I’ve done this a good few times with cheapo mags that wern’t feeding properly . Mite work if not be only one mag fubar’ed at the worst .

      It's not the springs. It's the mag inner sitting too far out of the feed tube allowing the bb retention nub to close. If you pull on the front bottom of the mag they will feed again as this pushes the nub back open. You need to shim your mag inners higher at the rear, and securely peg them in place.

      I had to do the same thing with my LCT midcaps. And the review I wrote also mentions this and has the shimming solution. If that solution doesn't make sense just PM me, I had another guy asking about it a few months ago in PM's and I did him a more detailed explanation of the modification.


      You need to inspect you mags first before you take them to bits.

      The part I refer to as rollovers (blue) are the sides of the metal part of the mag where the mag comes up and over the feed nozzle. The goal is to get the top of the feed tube (purple) to be in line with the rollovers - as show by the magazine top line (red). See image.

      In order to get the feed nozzle to be inline with those rollovers you are going to have to make a few modifications to both parts of the mag.

      The plastic internal bit needs a chamfer (Angled edge) filing onto the leading edge of the magazine (orange second image).

      The metal tang (green) needs bending out a little to allow the plastic parts to sit higher.

      Once you have the feed nozzle in line with the magazine top line doing these actions you will then need to shim the plastic parts into place.

      I made pegs/wedges. All they are is plastic that has been shaped to hold the plastic part of the magazine tight to the magazine top line. Those wedges are long enough that the magazine base plate holds them in and up. Stopping the feed tube falling away from the hop unit in the gun.
