    Do you have to load mid caps one at a time or can you pour the bbs in like with hi-caps?

    You have to load em` one at a time! Just like a GBB mag. Or ya can use a speed loader.

    Gas Blow Back. You can get yourself a 100 bb speedloader from ehobby for about 4-5 euros delivered.

    Unless you use Pistols 100 round speedloader doesn't make sense.
    you can get KA speedloader that holds 470 for 10-50 euro that will load 5 mid caps at once.
    You can also get electric powered speedloaders for around 80+ euro..

    most m4 midcaps are 100 round so one 100 round speedloader=1 mag

    i have midcaps and i use 2 100 round speedloaders.

    whatever works for you

    A full 100 speed loader doesnt rattle as much as a half empty 470 round one, Making them perfect for mid caps imo...

    Don't get the king arms m4 shaped speed loader! Jams all the time. Spend the extra few quid and get the Marui version which works perfectly.

    when loading mags with the speed loaders you can sometimes get jams and miss feeds, i;ve found the good old loading rod rather reliable and i find it just as fast as a speed loader

    Awww... I got one! Well, it certainly disagrees with my GBB mags. Seems to work ok for my lo-caps, but I'm still divided about the baby-rattle effect when carrying it about.

    I'd leave the speed loader with the bottle of bb's.

    Some excuse to use the side arm at least if you run out!
