Baz JJ Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Do they make mid cap versions ? Googling, I can only find high caps and I want mid caps to do some milsim games with my G&G M4 variant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 no need to have them in midcap surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tariq Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Flash mags only exist because no spring or indeed the magazine case is long enough to support that many bbs. If you want midcaps, just get midcaps. They are what they are. A flash mag midcap is trying to find a solution to a problem that never existed.

Baz JJ Posted December 30, 2013 Author Share Posted December 30, 2013 I was trying to avoid having to use a speed loader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tariq Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 You could always buy flash mags and mod them with a stopper plate so it can only hold about 120 bbs. That seems like your only solution IMO. Whats wrong with a speed loader? Yes it's 30 clicks roughly per mag but its a reliable system and doesnt take much time.

Baz JJ Posted December 30, 2013 Author Share Posted December 30, 2013 Okay, assuming that I go for the flash high caps, does anybody have experience of them. Are there makes to avoid ? I see Lonex advertised quite a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters jcheeseright Posted December 30, 2013 Supporters Share Posted December 30, 2013 Lonex are the ones to go for, but if you're looking to attend milsim games, they're still high caps regardless of how many BBs are in them! As Tariq mentioned, if you want mid caps, get mid caps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baz JJ Posted December 30, 2013 Author Share Posted December 30, 2013 Yeah sorry, I appreciate that. I will probably go Lonex for my high cap requirements and buy some speedloader fed low or mid caps for milsims. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 31, 2013 Supporters Share Posted December 31, 2013 As for speedloaders, King Arms are the way forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earbymarts Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I have a flash mag to use when I use my main weapon as a support weapon, otherwise its low and mid-caps now... makes for a more realistic airsoft game in my humble opinion.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baz JJ Posted January 4, 2014 Author Share Posted January 4, 2014 I agree its more realistic, but only if all players are restricted. Fighting a player with a high cap using a low cap is not realistic and puts the low cap player at a definite disadvantage. Also, a hit from a 5.56mm bullet tends to put the player out of the game, where as a hit from a single 6mm BB is often ignored, either deliberately or because its minimal impact is not felt through clothing. In this way a 30 bullet mag of 5.56 could take thirty people out where as 30 BBs might only take a few players out. I find that many players need a few hits to make them put their hand up at long range and the drop off of BBs even with hop up make the Airsoft gun less effective/accurate. Of course, one could argue that winding a high cap is more realistic in that it simulates the time it takes to reload and puts the player in harms way, unprotected, in the same way. Its nice to have the option and I will be getting some low or mids in due course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted January 6, 2014 Supporters Share Posted January 6, 2014 ^^That's only if you let a hicap wind down a lot though, eh? When I use them I wind them a few turns after every group of shots / couple of bursts, so they stay wound tight all the time - just in case I have to freak right out jammed trigger stylee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
