Help with Magazines

I have 2 g&p mags. They both are mid-cap, and one is a 130 round mid-cap that doesn't rattle. The other one is 68 rounds that doesn't rattle. When i put about 30 rounds into each mag, it fires like 15-20 shots, and wont fire the rest. It jams with 2 bbs every time i look down the mag. These mags are brand new and I don't know why it wont fire those last 10-20 shots. Please help on why it is jamming and why it wont fire the last few shots. Thank you

All AEG's do not fire the last 4-5 BB's. The push pin doesn't push up high enough to individually feed them into the hop-up (not 100% sure, don't quote me). This is why everytime you take the mag out when it's loaded, a few fall out. If you turn it upside down, it probably will fire them, but I don't recommend this since it's the opposite way of using the hop up.

Try oiling the feeding part where it goes into the hole in the mag well?

I'm using .20g and .25g matrix bbs.

Are you loading them completely?

airsoftXtacXguard · April 3rd, 2009, 19:35

I am not loading the mags all the way.

Try loading them completely, that happened with me too. I think it's because not enough pressure is being exerted on the spring.

Lube your mag and cycle through a few full mags worth of BB's. Don't release them with your AEG but rather push the little tab on the top of the mag so that they come shooting out. Up to you on how to catch them. I just aim it into an empty bag or box.

I save a little bag of BB's that I use just for lubing mags. probably about 3 mags worth but it save getting excessive amounts of lube on your hopup.
