Supporters sp00n Posted May 9, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 9, 2013 Been thinking about giving mid caps ago for a while, and looking round about 100 - 120rd seems to be the norm. Then I spotted a a box set of 5 mags with a 190rd per mag capacity this got me thinking WoW these would be ace, but it also got me wondering if anyone has used these before? And are they any good?

Supporters sp00n Posted May 9, 2013 Author Supporters Share Posted May 9, 2013 Just wanna add these are M4 mags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam_G Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Personally i'd stick with 100-120 rds as surely 190s the spring wont be all that great/strong. The only mids i would use are the genuine Magpul ones or the TM recoil ones! I had G&P mags and they would not feed in anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent7Sniper7 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Yeah stick with 120rd, the higher capacity you go the more problems your likely to have. Magpul P & E-Mags, best investment i've made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters sp00n Posted May 9, 2013 Author Supporters Share Posted May 9, 2013 I would love the magpul emag's but they are a tad on the expensive side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deacon Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 If the ones you have found are the MAG metal 190rnd mid caps, then they are great. I have had some and never had a single feed issue when using with JG and G&P M4's. Also know a lot of other people that rate them as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinobi Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I plan on using Hi-Caps, 300+ RDS, should I get Mid's? What are the advantages? Sorry Sp00n if you didn't want me to ask but I thought as we were on the topic I meres well ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I also use the Mag 190 rounders, Never had a problem, they are pretty heavy mags too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Sp00n if you didn't want me to ask but I thought as we were on the topic I meres well ;D if you get the G&G CM16 it will come with a 450rd hi cap the reason i am looking at mid caps is, i dislike the bb's rattling, the constant winding, and well to give skirmishing a slight element of realism (ok so 190 isnt exactly realism, but its closer than 450 ) I also use the Mag 190 rounders, Never had a problem, they are pretty heavy mags too. Thanks for the info mate ... gunna have to get me some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters jcheeseright Posted May 10, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 10, 2013 I used to use the mag 190s before I got a TM recoil and they're brilliant, no feed issues at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted May 10, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 10, 2013 How much is the box of 5 and from where, Sp00n? I want the option to use STANAG mags with my G36, in the fullness of time, and these sound promising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want the option to use STANAG mags with my G36, in the fullness of time, and these sound promising. Around the £50 for a box of 5, which I thought was fantastic value for money, that's from airsoft supply drop (currently sold out), but I also found them here >>> http://airsoft.tiger111hk.com/Airsoft-Magazine-Std/Mid-AEG-Magazine/c43_261/p3115/MAG-190rds-M16-AEG-METAL-Mid-CAP-Magazine-(5pcs)-BOX-SET/product_info.html for £35 + shipping etc (dont foget supporters also get a 5%discount) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters NickM Posted May 12, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 12, 2013 I have 3 of the 190rnd Mid's, and to be honest they are pretty good, BUT, you must make sure you don't over fill them, the springs have a habit of twisting and jamming if you really cram in the bb's. They are reassuringly heavy which is nice and the metal exterior is solid. And I did have an issue round Christmas time when they didn't feed right probably because of the above filling issue.

Stormhall Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I have (5) 65-round Dboys mid-cap STANAG mags. They feed properly and are made a made of a good metal. I also have a 300 round SRC hi-cap that came with the gun I use that only as a backup or for heavy suppression. So yeah I have to reload a lot.

Supporters sp00n Posted May 21, 2013 Author Supporters Share Posted May 21, 2013 just had a thought .... why isn't there some sort of electric speed loader (Edit:- quick Google, and i have seen pics etc from one 7-10 years ago, but no where stocks it) the standard one is ok (100 bb's) the mag variation isnt bad (450 bb's) but where is the box mag version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
