I picked up a pair of pro arms mid caps, I have 8 mag midcaps, 2 AABB low caps, 2 echo 1 low caps, 1 TM low cap, 2 TM highcaps and 1 CA highcap.

With the exception of the AABBs, all my lowcaps and TM highcaps are old and used, so I'm not sure if it's an issue with TM highcaps, or my frankengun TM p90, but the TM highcaps don't feed for shit. They all creak a bit when you twist them.

The lowcaps seem to be fine, the AABBs are at such a ridiculously low price, you can find them from one of the vendors here, I think they're about 18 bucks. They do the job, but they don't have a BB follower in the spring, so the last BB might get stuck without feeding.

the TM has the least amount of noise and has the best fit and finish, the most consistent looking clear plastic and all the bells and whistles like fake follower spring for the fake rounds.

E1 lowcaps creak a bit, both of mine were ripped apart by the previous owner to fix something, not sure what, but there's hotglue all over the inside.

MAG midcaps, they feed fine in the CAp90, and I'm in the middle of trying to fix a major issue with my TMp90 but I think they feed alright when the gun wants to work. The finish is nice and consistent, you can see through the mags reasonably well to see how many BBs are left... the follower springs are SUPER strong, might be why they cause misfeeds.

the ProArms mags I have... they feed... but the plastic is so cheap, parts are smoother than others, parts are more transparent than others... don't use them in a photo op. :P

I should also add that the weakpoint on all the mags seem to be the end cap that sits on the end of the mag that has 4 feet on it that guides it into the gun... these things are cheap as shit and poorly designed, dropping a mag or even bumping it or putting strong force on it will break one of the feet, and these 4 feet also keep it secured to the mag. Gluing them results in being unable to open up the mag for maintenance if you need to open it.
