Are the midcaps MAG brand? Ive never had feed issues with those. Cheers! The Midcaps are Mag brand. The springs inside them are simply too strong and causes jams until bedded in. This is often discussed on forums. Some say to oil the spring, I am just going to wait until they are used over an extended time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davegolf Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 The only time I had grief was if you overloaded them, must have had 12 of them over time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crispy1610 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Love this build and it is pretty similar to what I have just done with my gun. However I didnt change the motor or the gears and havent got round to getting the hop up. I also get the piston stopping in different positions, I think it is when firing in full auto it does it most. Have you had any trouble with the cut off lever? After putting in the new spring piston set and shimming the gears it totally lost the semi auto, Saw someone recomending to bend the cut off lever up slightly which worked perfectly. However after an evening of playing it kept randomly firing full auto or 3 round bursts before cutting off. I Bent the cut off lever again but this time it snapped so have just bought a replacement and again the gun is working semi auto. Just wondered if you have had the same problem as it seems to be a common issue with the version 6 gearbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad I haven't as I would have just chucked everything in the bin if I had another issue! Good to look out for though if I come across a spare somewhere. I do need to grab that new gearbox shell soon as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crispy1610 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Really what other issues have you had? Or just the ones mentioned in the thread? Anything to do preventative maintenance on? They are readily available 10-15 for a JG one. If this wears quickly I may be tempted by a cnc one at 25ish. I just dipped the entire gearbox end of the CO lever in grease to hopefully stop it wearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
