Mid cap not feeding

Markom5a

Hi all I need a hand with this. It's a kingarms plastic midcap and it's just stopped feeding. I dumped a whole load of silicone oil into It and then it works but after a refill no joy! My hicaps are feeding fine it's just this little fella that's given me hassle!

Any advice?

Thanks in advance

Are they KingArms AUG midcaps by any chance? They are known to cause a few problems. I don't think there is much you can do with them besides lashing oil in them and try different brand bbs and hope for the best.

Spring might be catching on you, on the unerpart of the mag is cap that can screw off to get the spring out, take it out and have a look at the spring you might see if it was pulled at, that or try see if there was a blockage. Same happened to mine, the took the spring out, put it back and it was all better, might have been sitting wrong,
Hope it helps

Yeah, bb's can get stuck side by side in the mag, especially if you overfill them.
Noticed my old KA m4 mids did it regularly, good slap on the side of my helmet and it fixed everything :rolleyes:

I got a bunch of 120 rnd mags and noticed if i actually put 120 in them they misfeed, well not feed at all, 100 seems to be the most they'll take and feed.

Which mags have you got?

clone pmags http://www.waterloo.hk/english/productShow.asp?id=40, it literally seems like the spring does nothing for the first 20 rounds. If you pour them out after about 20 fall out the rest will shoot out as the spring starts to push them but theres no sound like the spring actually hitting the bb's so it seems like the spring is pushing along with them just not with enough force (it defies physics i tell you !). It was just an idea for Markom5a to try

Thanks lads I'll try some of those tips out when I get my gearbox back! More than likely I it's overfilling!
