Mid-Caps

Postby prowl375 » Sat Oct 13, 2012 12:51 pm

I got a mid cap for my Aug and it's not shooting too well. It misfires a lot. I think I need to 'break in' the mag, but I have no idea how to. Help?

Get a silicone lubricant from AONW or airsoft site and spray it down the well. Problem solved.

MAG. I heard the King Arms aug mags suck, so I didn't get them.

And to the guy above that, thanks.

Silicone oil in the mag will work for a time, but if you get dust or particles in the oil, it will eventually develop buildup. Silicone has to be kept clean.

Some people will load and unload the mags a few times. This can help rub smooth any burs that may catch the BBs or catch between the follower and the magazine.

MAG is good. I have one for my AUG and it's every bit as good as my other TM mags.

Don't go crazy with the silicone. It will get on the BBs, then your bucking and barrel and screw with your accuracy. When breaking mine in, I used two drops of RC silicone shock oil and loaded and unloaded the mag four or five times.
