WE G19 magazines paint issue

[kar120c]

On one of my WE magazines the black paint peels off very easily so much that when I load BB's some of them gets on black.
I know that a duty scratched magazine is fine but in my case the paint peels off just with a nail.
Anyone has thius issue too?

It is a WE. Deal with it.

Top - a WE magazine I gamed twice
Midddle - a WE magazine I mostly used for testing fires
Buttom - a WE magazine I hardly use at all
They all have paint chips like crazy.

The problem are not the paint chips but the paint debris dirty BB's
Ps what mag extractor do you use? They seems to be MagpuI I see they fit well on we mags. Have they the hole for filling? Where do you bought they?

But how do the paint debris get into the groove of BBs? Do you have paint debris inside the groove as well? That sounds bad.

I use two types of magazine Speed Plate, one is Magpul for KWA (may be a Chinese copy), the other is Magpul for real steel.

The Magpul for KWA ones were brought from DX but they don't carry that anymore. They fit on WE magazines, no modification required. No filling holes, the Speed Plate need to be slide sideway to allow filling.

The Magpul for real steel ones were brought from Amazon, they need some heating and clamping to fit WE magazines, which I did with a heatgun and a vice. Also no filling holes.

Because paint is very soft when I pull down the spring to load bb's with my thumb nail I scratch paint on the side of the Groove.

These are branded Magpul but they say fit KWA/KSC, should go fine I think

The real steel ones are actually cheaper than the airsoft ones (about $15 USD for three), that's why I went with them later.
