Hey guys,

I'm encountering a pretty unique problem; not one that I've seen or heard of before.

I use midcaps and whenever a mag is full of BBs, the first BB that I fire will only fly for a few feet. Once the mag is roughly half empty, every BB that I fire will fly normally.

Additionally, if I fire a burst with a full mag, only the first BB drops off; all subsequent BBs in the burst will fly normally.

I have tried many different magazine brands and sizes (30-rounds, 68-round, 80-round, etc) and the problem is reproducible. I've also visually inspected the nozzle and it does not seem worn down.

The AEG is a G&P VLTOR body, and the mechbox shell is OEM also, but all the internals parts are aftermarket: Lonex hopup and nozzle, Modify airseal parts.

Has anyone encountered this before? Any suggestions?
