    okay so i got myself a jg g36c recently from tony in eirsoft and i think its great! but with a problem i think. heres what i do, i pick up the rifle, i slot the magazine in, i turn it on full auto (rapid fire) then i wind up the magazine fully and fire. it fires about 10-15 BB's then makes louder "bangs" and does not fire any BB's then i wind it up and it works again... for another 10-15 bb's.

    Im not sure if this is normal but if its not then what should i do?:(

    you have to keep winding the magazine until it makes a kinda "snap" noise, you'll feel it too., it takes about 30 seconds of constant winding til its fully sprung.,

    Your not winding it enough, ya have to keep winding it to you hear loud

    clicks coming from the mag, they'll be louder than the normal winding

    Get yourself some mid-cap mags; they are cheap and you'll never have to wind again.
    Star do some good ones which work perfectly with the JG G36C. You can get them off ebay.

    The vanaras are advertised as 100 rnd.
    I've had no problem with the star mags but admit I haven't counted exactly what I've gotten into them. I'm not too bothered if it isn't the full 140 as I have 5 and two hi-caps on standby :)

    edit: ... could also go for the 1000 rnd mags
    http://www.rsov.com/index.php?target=products&product_id=2689
    or the laylax 5000 rnd mag:
