Hi-Cap Problems

Shinka Prime · April 20th, 2011, 09:32

Hey folks! I have an M4A17 AEG with a hi-cap mag. I'm having a problem with overfeeding. When I fire in semi mode, I get three shots before I have to remove the clip and empty out the reciever. I'm not even going to start on full auto ~shudders~

What I'm wondering is, can this be resolved by adjusting my hop-up? Am I winding the clip too much? I haven't had any issues with previous mid-cap mags. Maybe I'm just not used to the clips? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

M4A17? What brand is this? If its the clear M4 from walmart the gun alone is a serious problem.

What happens exactly after three shots? Does it jam? Or does it stop feeding? Highcap magazines are crappy to begin with so its prolly best if you just stick to your midcaps.
