What qualities to look for in M4 magazines.

ASG midcaps are fantastic. £50 for a box of 10.

Agreed - I've been using these for 2 years and haven't had a single problem.

 

 

3rd vote for these.. work a charm in my combat raider after a nightmare with other brands...

 

 

Good point - mine have been used with Classic Army, G&P and TM guns

 

 

 

I ended up with loads of mags which miss-fed before buying those...

 

Bought the 10 ASG 140 rd Midcaps @LWA today.

I just got 5 of those mags delivered from airsoft zone, do I need to do anything to ensure they work ok? Like fill them up and empty then a few times or are the good to go straight out the box?

What! I could have bought less. :/

 

 

That said I needed something and LWA were the only site in the UK in stock.

I've been using the ASG 140 round M4 Mid caps for a few games now, been through 4 refills of the first 5. Had only one problem with them, and I suspect that is as much down to the gun as it is the magazines, though I'm not sure.

 

When I dump the magazines (after the gun ceases to discharge rounds) there are always 3-4 BBs falling from the magwell.

 

I get that the follower does not leave the magazine, as the G&G mag which came with the gun did - though I'm confident that the loss of 4 bbs is better than getting mud on the follower (and inside the magazine) or breaking off the follower from the G&G magazine (which I have never used).

3 or 4 BBs falling out when you take the mag out is normal.
