You may have been putting too many in, I can put around 150 in my m mid caps but the wont fit, they are perfct with 100rds.

Well I use TM mags in my AUG, and use mid caps in my MP5, have to take a mag apart to free a jam, but was easily done.

I use those KA mid caps with my aug and I have put about 2000 rounds through them with no problems at all. The only thing I find with them is you wont fit the full 110 rounds in them. But for the price, they are great mags.

Well King Arms have finally answered the prayers of so many Aug users and have released boxes of Aug mid-caps.

The magazines come in a simple sturdy box that holds the five magazines inside:

The magazines themselves are well made plastic that feels strong. They are considerably darker than TM standards, but both have the same texture.

Now on to the important part, how well they work. They fit perfectly into my TM Aug with no woble or any other problems. However, they do need some work to get them to feed properly and even take in more than about 50 bbs each, but thankfully this doesn't take very long and is more breaking them in than a design fault.

The sping and follower have to pass through two bends in the magazine like the one above. These are quite sharp bends and this is where the problems initially occur. When loading in bbs the spring will bunch up here and you will have part of the spring compressed to the max here, but the rest of it un-compressed behind it. This stops you putting very many bbs in and it doesn't like to move from here, so you can't get them to feed either.

This however, is easily fixed by a bit of silicon oil and breaking in the spring a bit.

Firstly unscrew part of the base, you only need to turn it 90 degrees then ease it off, try not to let it fly away or will have to spend some time looking for it.

Turn this with a slotted head srew driver either clockwise or anti-clockwise 90 degrees

The spring and follower will come out of here:

Now you need to take the spring out and stretch it lightly to make it more bendy. While doing this spray liberal amounts of silicone oil into the magazine from both ends, this is only to help get it all moving as it breaks in and you should fire of a few magazines worth of bbs to get rid of the oil, otherwise it attracts dirt.

Now insert and remove the spring and follower into the mag repeatedly until it moves through fairly smoothly without getting stuck too badly at the bends. Then put the spring back into the bottom, a small screw driver to hold it in place is useful here, put the cap on the mag and turn it 90 degrees either way again.

Now you can try and fill up the magazine with bbs again, most easily done with a speedloader. When filling up the magazine you may find that the spring bunches up quite badly at the second bend and you can't get any more bbs in. If this happens take out the bbs in the magazine and repeat the above process. Once broken in you should be able to insert bbs, to the level that they will go past the second bend, this is the maximum capacity.

Once they have been broken in the magazines feed flawlesly. When counting I got just under 110 rounds out of a magazine, this is due to a few in the hop feed and that the top bb will not come out as the follower does not extend to the top of the magazine like TM standard-caps.

All in all these are an excellent purchase for any Aug user representing good value for money and the fun of reloading, but they do require a small amout of work to get going.

Since this is also the first review that I have written any constructive criticism on they syle of writing and presentation is welcome.

H.O.T.A.S.

What ever mag you do decide on don't get the Both Elephant Aug mags. Like everything else BE produce it is utter sh!te.
