    Can someone post up a picture of where the mag fits into a VSR10 or USR11, I am having problems with bb's feeding from the magazine. I just want to make sure its a dodgy mag and nothing else. Apart from that the USR11 is a very impressive piece of kit.

    Naw its definately the mag. Just testing it in the back garden and the mag isn't feeding right. The bb's are getting stuck in the mag so its either the rubber seal is too tight or the spring is too weak. Have ordered a TM mag so hopefully that will sort things.

    Have the scope mounted as well but have to zero it in now but fairly happy with the marker (apart from the mag issue).

    Twas the first thing I tried. When I get the other mag I'll open the dodgy one up and see if I can see where the problem is.

    If you have a speedloader try filling it and emptying about 10 times. The feeding nozzle is likely to be too tight but running a few hundred rounds through it will loosen it.

    good idea

    also... if you are using a speedloader, try loading them by hand, i had feed issues with my m9 and my glock and both were because of the speed loader, loading by hand fixes the problem, takes longer but worth it if it means the mag feeds properly

    Why was that? was the loadeer forcing them in to hard?

    yup, loader was actually damaging the bbs going in, not enough to be visible, but enough that they were jamming

    Well the HFC mag is still sticking but the TM arrived in todays (cc free :D) delivery and it feeds beautifully. Might bring it with me on Saturday for HRTA.
