No wonder why the 120rd PTS is much more expensive than the 75rd PTS (Green Label).

just received my pmag, disappointed so far.. i loaded her up with some BB's, none came out. They're all stuck inside the mag, i have to bang it, smack it, then hold that little release piece for 1 or 2 bb's to roll out then repeat.

/sigh

Why do people get PMags? What's the difference between that and the normal type mags? This goes for both airsoft and RS. Are Magpul mags just better quality or something? And what's with the little loop thing on the bottom of the mag? Just easier to grab?

this fella, was told it was one of the best mags you could buy.. unfortunately i load her up with my quick loader and the spring seems to not push the bb's at all, seems like shes just jamming every time.. really dont want to open her up again, gah

What BBs you using? Try using some silicone oil?

"Bio bb's" (cybergun.com) 0.20g from walmart, closest place i can order BB's. I put some oil in earlier. The spring reacts nicely, its the way the BB's are placed in side. Stacked side to side like bullets in a magazine, i'm guessing this is whats causing the jam. I can even place 5 bb's, it'll fire the first but the rest it won't fire, they stay inside

gah

BBs stacking in zigzag is definitely no good. BBs from Walmart/Canadian Tire usually suck, so that might be the cause. In fact I would stop using those BBs, wouldn't want to risk damaging the internals.

they've been working great in my other mag, never had a jamming issue.

I've noticed something though, the packaging for this pmag came in as basically a clear plastic bag that said "made in hong kong" on it... as oppose to the Magpul PTS packaging which contains their logo, and a zip lock, etc.

It's either the bbs, or occasionally those mags don't sit high enough in the magwell causing feed issues. If it feeds when you push on the bottom of the mag this could very well be the issue.... However walmart bbs are most deffinately a bad idea

not a good sign. I'm fairly sure real pmags have the magpul PTs shiney bag dealy (correct me if I'm wrong)

naw, the BB's are just jamming. I don't have easy access to BB's here in Welland. Walmart sells the "Best" bb's around this area. http://www.cybergun.com/ the website that sells them .20G bb's.

Guess i'm sticking with my other mag for now, Really dislike Mags that are picky on the type of BB. Considering the price just for 1 mag, grr.
