KA magz not feeding.

[BORDENSNIPER]

alright, I have a modifyed kraken with an element metal body, tommorow or friday I should be gettin my metal front set for the ak.

problem is, as of now my KA mids arent feeding. One of them is good, the stock highcap works...

im also getting a KA hopup.

any suggestions to modify ags to feed better, or should I update when i install the metal front set and the new hopup?

If you're changing your hopup anyways, it really doesn't matter how well the current one works.

I had some issues with my KA AUG mags (midcaps). Here's what I did on mine and they now work flawlessly.

Just unscrew the "button" (errr I don't know the real name...) so the spring comes out then lube the channel inside. Put the spring back in and lock it into position. Then using a cleaning rod just compress the spring back and forth for some time. That'll "break in" the spring.

I remember there is an article about that on Arnies (for AUG mags).

Like Vince, I too had to break in my brand new KA m4 mags. All I do though is put about 3 drops of silicon oil into the feed tube then load the mag up with BB's (to help spread the oil). The spring/follower/BB's may be getting caught or slowed down inside the channels. Before you oil it, load up the mag with some BB's and pull the feed lip back and let them fly out. They should come out with quite a bit of force and not just dribble out. Do the oiling technique I mentioned above and see if they come shooting out better. I also had to file down the feed lips on some of my KA mags to get them to feed properly. I've also heard that is a problem on their m14 mags.

If that doesn't work, try a few drops of oil inside the hopup via the magwell.

thanks for the replies,

I will try all of this out as soon as I install the new metal front set (hence making my ak fully metal bitches!) and the hopup...if that changes nothing then il lube the mags, if that doesnt do shit, il file the LIPS
