I know people like to hate on these, but here goes.

I've been buying these for my M4, and the only jamming problem I've had so far was with one mag, and I had to go out of my way to jam it. They'll actually hold 34 rounds, so you're not getting shorted 4-5 rounds due to the hop-up. They're quite durable too, I actually have the outline of a circle and "30" imprinted into the bottom of my gearbox from them. Stay away from the mid-cap versions, and you should be fine.

I've had a bunch of those jam on me to the point where a hard tap wouldn't even unjam it. And there's no way to pop the spring out without cutting a slot in the cover.

I'm not sure why these things jam on everyone else. Either I'm really lucky, or people are seriously abusing these things.

Just out of curiosity, how do you load those magazines?

Every MAG magasine I had in my life jammed.

Every one of them. And working the spring never changed a thing.

I had KA mags and they worked well.
It depends on the gun and hop-up system used. And if you look around, it is easy as hell to fix.

Right now I have some not-branded metal lowcaps (68rnd). I believe they are cloned from KA ones. The nub that holds the BBs has a stop molded. I opened the mags and cut the stop. Now they all fit and feed perfectly. Could be a way better alternative to trying to get the angle and fit perfect with the current mod.

what exactly are the feeding issues with king arms mags?

I have 10 plastic MP5 king arms midcap mags and the only problem i very occasionally have is two bb's shot out at the same time. other than that NEVER any other problems through a few thousand rounds.

Problem is with the metal M4 magasines, but most metal mags in general. The BBs are not going out because the retaining pin (in the exit of the mag) is too long/molded wrong, so the hop-up feed tube does not push it far enough.

Buddy of mine uses these http://www.ebairsoft.com/magpul-pmag...cs-p-1643.html without issue. He has had them for a year or so. Free shipping as well. They areactually made by STAR if i recall, not Magpul.

They also carry midcaps as well of 120rds but i can't say how good they are. I believe they are the genuine Magpul PMAGS, so i'd imagine they are top notch.

Never had a issue with KA M4 metal mags. They work and feed great on TM and KA.
