I have 3 mid caps 180round's,8 high caps 300rounds, and 1 A&K 5000 round box mag. All in M16 typ mag's
Istart out useing the mid's, but when the battle get's rolling the high's come out :badgrin:
Ther is realy no difrance from mids to high's, well thats not true. It takes longer to wind a high cap than it takes to pull a fresh mid out of my vest and jam it home. so to all of thouse people that say that highcap mag's are unfair, I say bullock's

I don't understand how people go through so much ammo. Must be spraying the treeline like in predator everytime you see movement. :O

tell me about it. If you need a box mag because you're going through that much ammo without being a SAW gunner, there's something wrong

Why? You'll just be paying for the name. Probably be made out of the same plastic is the other star mags.

I have 60 mids for my M4 and XM-177 I got 30 VN mags, 20 regular 30RD style mids, and 10 of the poormans SR47 mags thats just my M4 variants too. I also got 2 AK's wich I need more mags for. and my 3 TM shotties I got 28 shells for those. (but I guess that doesnt matter cause you dont have a choice.) I got 10 standards for my thompson. My uzi was broken almost as soon as I got it so I only have 2 mags for it.

Wrong, the guts are made by STAR, the outside is made by Magpul itself, they showed the shells of the airsoft mags at the 2008 SHOTSHOW.

Actually, it's called "suppression fire".

I have been happy with my King Arms Metal M series midcaps they have a nice look and feel. They are available in Black, Tan, OD, and what they call Dark Earth. They also come with or without the Law Enforcement markings. They feed very nicely in my ICS M4 with a Systema Hop-up. I do have to admit that in intense firefights I preffer my Classic army mag because it hold 120 rounds vs King Arms 68 :lol:

thanks for mentioning that.
I've actually been looking at those and was curious how they perform and what not.
