Help with High Quality MP5 midcaps

Shock · April 1st, 2008, 09:02

Alright I just bought a echo1 mp5 pdw and i love the gun. The only thing I hate is the mags that it comes with. Im looking for a cheap but reliable mag thats spring loaded so a high quality mid cap. I hate the high caps because you have to crank them after 40 shots.

Ive seen the 90 rnd abs plastic mid caps which are 9.99 but im looking for maybe a metal one thats a little more expensive. not too expensive like the jg 120 rnd mid cap which is 30 bucks.

Does anyone have any ideas were i can get a cheap and reliable metal midcap for my mp5?

Thanks - Shock

Well, assuming that any brand MP5 mag will work in your Echo, there are the 90rd Mag midcaps you mentioned, I have four of them and haven't had any issues with them (except overfilling causes the top to split, but that seems to be normal). I have two G&P midcaps, they are very nice, metal, shoot great. Only niggle I have is the last BB stays in the mag when empty making it hard to tell if the mag is full or empty.

Where to get................ no idea these days.

MAG 90 round midcaps, box of 10.

EDIT: Hmm, apparently they don't sell them anymore. Shame. Or they may just be restocking.

Redwolf has pretty much everything mentioned in this thread, and more.

search for G&P mids 100rnds or Tokyo Marui 50 or 100rnds (metal ones)

I have some 100 round TM mags for my JG MP5 and they work great. I'd highly recommend them.

Hey, you know what they say about cheaping out on airsoft...

Styrak · April 1st, 2008, 15:32

Buying the same mags (TM or G&P, etc) for less money is cheap? I thought it was just common sense.

What do they say? Ive got like 5 or 6 diffrent endings for that statement.

And 4 or 5 of them are probably not even appropriate to be spoken/typed

Agreed. And that's what makes them so good and funny.

Ooh, now I want to hear them. T7, are you gonna leave me hanging? Jk, jk.

As for cheaping out, I'm talking buying the Echo1 mags rather than, say, G&P ones (which I use, actually). Or, sure, Redwolf may charge more, but I'd rather support a company I can trust than have a deal fall through like ILLusion just did with UNCompany.

Not only did he lose money, but I and everyone else on the order have to wait another month for our stuff from WGC instead. =(
