please do, as that is one good way to break the gear and spring!

personally, I typically only run low and mid caps. From 68-150 round mags but I short load and or run fewer mags depending on how my rig is setup. (eg. For 300 round limit 10x30 rounds or 3x100 rounds)

I have only ever gamed a highcap once, with one of my backup loaner guns, that wasn't expected to be used. But it was a good ol' shoot em up, run and spray, get your gun on type of game anyway.

They dont make them. If you wanted a HiCap mag you shoulda gotten an AEG not a GBBR. Welcome to the world of Wallet-Hurt (Close to Butt Hurt but different). GGBR Mags usually run aroun $50-75 on average.

Good idea but it won't work.
A high cap will only feed if there's a quite a few bbs in the reservoir due to the fact that there needs to be tension on the spring (I think... My reasoning might not be correct however it definitely won't work)

Unfortunately all I have for now is 2 high caps (one of which is still bnib). Considering I mostly use my pistols when I play I'm in now real rush to get mid/low caps. I just started playing in the summer, and have spent wayyyy to much already on this sport so I'm saving up to buy new mags dump pouch at tac12

Since this thread was rezzed...

I don't have an issue really with one hicap. I hate the "you can get a pack of 10 mags for $xx" BS because obviously some people forget not everyone runs STANAG or MP5 mags. When I started playing my mags were $50 each... $40 used, if I could find them. So yea, 10 mags = $500 + tax/shipping. Not dropping that in a hurry right off the top.

However, the only hicaps I own are the ones that came with my guns. And the only hicaps I've fielded are when they're the only mag I have for the gun. And if it's a gun I use regularly, I buy more mags for it. I don't even like them for basement plinking.
