Planning things before you do them mainly and only shooting when it's 100% necessary. You're best trying using an aeg with only 30rds loaded in a mag first to make sure you're ok with it.

It's worse with AEGs since the magazines never feed the last 3 bbs as they're still in the hop up hopper. AEG realcaps are thus only 27rnd magazines.

In that case using mid-caps with 33/34 rounds in them will work- I think that's what Ed does

If you have a standard King Arms type, 200 round Speedloader, then one full press gives you 4 BBs, but the 1st BB you load and the last one, are effectively lost because of how the Speedloader works.

 

So 9 full presses of 4, minus the 2 you lose from the Speedloader's mech, and the 4 you drop when you reload, gives you exactly 30 usable shots.

 

Just make sure you buy a transparent Speedloader lol.

What changes when you use a GBBR?
I've found that carrying a sidearm with 3 magazines becomes essential. Mainly because the GBBR I have rarely gets through 10 rounds before jamming...

 

Either learn to accurately shoot and only shoot when absolutely necessary, or get used to carrying a ridiculously heavy amount of magazines.
