    Hey lads, looking to pick up some stepped mid caps for my G&G EBR but I can't for the life of me find any that are larger than 80rds. Has anyone got any ideas?

    Classic army midcaps are the only other ones that fit, try airsofteire for them, SGAirsoft used to do the G&G midcaps but more than likely sold out.

    I just settled for high caps in the end with my EBR, despite my hate of the rattling. :)

    Unfortunately not, they only have the Hi-Caps. I suppose at this stage I'll have to do the same.

    Nope, they need to have a step at the back to fit in.

    All they have are the CA Hi-Caps unfortunately. Stepped mids seem impossible to find :(

    could they be modded to fit?
    is 80 rds a bad thing, I use 85rd magpul ones in my m4 with no issue even with having to reload more but trigger awareness can help that:D
    Have you tried contacting any of the shops direct to see if they can order from abroad for you?
    Hobbyairsoft,SEAirsoft and airsoftguns seem to be very accomadating with this.

    Looks like I'll have to see about ordering them in alight. I'll have to get around 10 of those 80rd mags I'd say.

    Ah right well they weren't up on the website, it's why I assumed they had none. Do they have much?

    I haven't yet, I've been a bit too busy with Work + College and don't need them for a while now.

    Sorry for Hi-jacking but I think your the guy who bought the KART EBR on adverts. The mags for G&G M14 varients and Classic army M14 are different to other M14 manufacturers.

    Your fortunate in the sense you have a lot more choice of mag brands, G&G owners not so much.....

    Yep, well not yet but hopefully.

    So the kart mags don't need the step on it? What mags would suit it?

    No you don't. KART EBR's are based on the Marui design so just do a bit of research and you should find a list of compatible manufacturers.

    Ahh, thanks a lot. Probably saved me a bit of time looking for ones with steps, so thanks southern dandy
