G&G combat machine loadout?

[JamesAirsofterAgent]

I used to use 450 round high caps. It was very rare that I needed to swap mags in a particulr game - I'm not really a spray and play type So 2 of those were fine for most game days, just refilling them between games. But I got annoyed by the loud rattle and the winding.

Then I got some MAG metal 190 round mid caps - so 4 of those is roughly equivalent to my old 2 hicaps. All I do is top them up between games and 4 mags is still very easy to carry. For CQB days, 2 in the leg rig, plus one in the gun is all I need On longer days, I carry all 4 plus a back up hicap just in case!

Never tried the pull cord ones, but I did have a 2500 round battery powered, sound activated (automatic) drum mag for a while Lots of fun, but very heavy and I didn't use it much

What were the metal mags you used? Could you post a link?Apparently the metal ones are better than the plastic ones?

Agreed if you want a flash mag, buy Lonex.

type in MAG 190 round midcaps they also do 130 round mid caps. I could only find box sets for the 190 round mid caps however there are loads of choice of where to buy 130 round mid caps

EDIT: btw pmags are the best and they are plastic. Whoever said metal is better than plastic is telling a porkie pie!

Please stop punting out hearsay and opinions as facts.

The best mags are whatever feeds reliably in your own gun and fit your budget. Pmags don't work for everyone. MAG 190 round metal m4 magazines are very good, but not necessarily the same goes for everything they do. I've had very good results from dytac invader mags, others have had nothing but grief from them. Also, ASG flash mags are just rebranded Lonex ones.

I have a CYMA AK-74 Flash mag which was about £11 posted - must be shite, right? As with so much that CYMA make, not at all. TBH the plastic is a little more flexible than I'm used to in my mags, but it works fine and the one time I've dropped it, it bounced.

You really need to take a step back though - I know that it's all shiny shiny, but the most important thing to get is eyepro. After that boots. Then 1/2 face mask. You may find that getting eyepro which suits you is not as simple as picking a product and buying it. There are a number of issues and what fits and works for 1 person may fail miserably for another. Worse than that though is the set that sorta works, but just doesn't quite ever feel like it's not there, or never quite tightens up and fits your face shape well enough that it doesn't move, or maybe it is working just fine but the gap at the edge near your temples is a bit too wide to be completely confident that you wont become the star of a horrible story... see, if something is bollocks, it's obvious, you just ditch it, but just how good can eyepro be? How much minor scale bollocks should you put up with? Very much the same can be said about boots, just without the same degree of dire should they fail...

These are the discussions that will actually help you most right now.
