    I have a g&g m4 ,and the 3 hi caps i have for it dont feed very well on full auto or semi. I heard that g&g m4s have extra wide magwells so i put tape on it, that improved it abit but even after that after i fire about 10 shots, i have to remove the mag, shake the gun (bbs fall out) and put the mag back in to start firing again, has anybody got a solution for this? (Mods: Move this post if nessacery)

    very stupid question but are you winding the mags? always start with the small stuff :rolleyes:

    and another thing, hold the mag forward and fire it, if it doesn't then it's a mag/hop up problem if it does fire it means you need more tape.

    thought you might have but it can sometimes be the easy stuff. Let me know how it goes.

    As T4RGET said - more tape. I find a single piece of card plus strip of electrical tape gets most mags firing in wider mag wells; you can always add more :)

    I put tape on it , still misfiring a bit. Maybe the mags sitting too low for the bbs to feed properly . Its a problem a few people have had with this paticular model so im gona bring it into mia quite soon. Any other suggestions are very welcome. Since mia most likely wont figure it out straight away.

    Did you put more tape on? :P

    What you do is line up the spare mags with the mag that came with the gun, and look at the dimensions. You then simply change the spare mags to match the one that came with your rifle i.e. if the new mags are narrower, you buff them out with card + tape, or if they are larger, you file them down.

    Yup , now heres the funny thing , it happebs even with the mag that came with it , so it might be the gun

    sounds like the hop up chamber might not be in right or in the off chance- the mag catch was not fit into the magwell properly (or the plastic in the rifle was mis molded meaning the entire dimensions are off) the second one is highly unlikely however so i tihnk it might be the chamber itself

    What BB's are you using? Raptors do NOT feed in G&G guns. Better off using a higher quality BB.

    If you're using a better BB, then I'd check the hop up - make sure it's off, and give your barrel a clean, then re-test :)
