I like reloads. It's main reason for using midcaps. I like to be limited (somewhat) on ammo in one mag. So I mostly use like 60-80 BBs midcaps which usually work just fine without extreme pressure on BBs. And I carry like 6 of them.
Yes! And most of our fields/games over here follows the same standard rules. Me, who falls in the AUTO B class, are confined to a maximum of 80bb's per mag, so midcap is kinda just easier(plus I also like the reloading). Unrelated: Auto B also can't have more than 389,3fps / 118,7mps for 0,25 and 307,4fps for 0,3. And a safety distance of 10meters, whitin 10m I'll have to draw my "cqb-fps" sidearm if I want to shoot anyone.
The rattle is enough for me to never touch a hicap again, so long as I am able to get good midcaps for the gun I'm running (LMGs notwithstanding, of course, not like you're gonna be sneaky beaky like with one of them). That being said, the winding is also a disadvantage that has a few potential benefits. Takes ages, finger gets sore, just as bad as rattling when out in the field. It's why I far prefer flash mag style hicaps, since they wind so much faster. Also, you actually get to reload when you use a midcap, hicaps hold too much ammo. Objectively inferior in terms of game performance, I know, but I just love to reload in the middle of a battle.
Everyone says "hi caps hold more ammo" but i would say they don't hold more where you really need it. A highcap might hold 700 bbs but most I've had only get like 50 shots before you have to wind, versus a midcap only holds 100 but you get all 100 continuously. And ill bet i can swap mags just as fast if not faster than it would take me to wind the midcap enough for it to start feeding again
@@NegativeAirsoftTech But if you wind the hi cap mag enough to give you a similar bb feeding efficiency to the midcaps then midcap syndrome should then also become a concern?
They rattle, you can fire less continuously before you have to turn the little wheel, sometimes the little trapdoor through which you put the BBs in goes loose very quickly so if you're not careful it just opens and spills it out. And reloading in general is not problem. The price for capacity ratio is a fair point for hicaps but if you're already spending 300£ for an Airsoft gun, you can afford extra 20£ worth of mags.

The last solution is probably the most practical (widening the cylinder's tube). I did it once with the nozzle still on and then forgot about it. Thanks for the reminder!
i find that hi caps feed more poorly than mid caps, a good hicap is amazing, especially if a P90 hicap does its job and dosnt auto unwind since thats the only hi cap that doesnt rattle.
If bb's spit out the top of your hi cap mag when winding it, that means the bb catch (the little part uptop you can pull back to release bbs) is too short or even broke.
The main reason i switched to midcaps is they feed more reliably. I couldn't get any of the 3 hicaps i had to feed consistently at 20 rps in my ak which just has a 22k motor, 11.1 25c 1300 mah, and standard 18:1 gears. I only run .25's. I switched to pts tpm's and they fed flawlessly. I don't know why it's like that but the stock cyma bakelite ak74 mag was skipping 3 rounds when i tried to shoot full auto every few shots. Double eagle metal ak47 hicap same thing. And cyma Bulgarian 5.56 flash mag again didn't work. That's not to say they don't work on semi because they do and yes i can pull the trigger really fast and they will feed. Its just the full auto for some reason. It also wasn't a case of too much pressure because if it was it would've stopped after the first shots.
I have the exact opposite issue. Midcaps wont feed my hose gun over 20 rps unless i use light weights . As soon as i through. 32 in a mid cap they act like a prome date and choke even on semi . I can throw a drum or flash in them and they will eat .32g @ 30/35 rps all day .
Ive had the same problem with my cyma ak74. Completely stock, I was having occasional feed issues on both 7.4 and 11.1. switched to midcaps and it disappeared.
I've been using the cylinder head tapering/flaring method for yonks now, but as shown it's easy to go too far haha But great technique nonetheless - Cheers for letting the broader community learn Luke- Helpful demonstration :)
Great video as always ... just a couple of points 1 I've used XT ( the yellow 60amp conn ) from rc days. I believe the current flow around tge outside surface of tge connector ... hence as good if not better than deans + it semi locks when connected. 2 I've used std PTS EPM midcaps .... hardly any misfeeds ( on a Krytac !! yadda yadda yadda) 2 nozzles - great info.Thx. Could you use an engineering reamer to precisely "scrape" out the bore to a precise size ?? You can get adjustable reamers ( not sure what sizes though)
I just got some Arcturus d day tan AKM 7.62 mags to run on my main SLR AKu in 6.62 with an extend suppressor concealing an extended barrel. And I just got some lct ak12 mags for my Daytona ak, the mag well and mag lip for the mags is smaller and definitely is taking some time to get used to.
How would someone go about ensuring they get the best nozzle for their particular gun? Buy a few different ones which are the same length of the one provided with the gun and just trial and error? Just got a CYMA Platinum CM.098A SR25 so trying to ascertain the parts I need to get the power, range and accuracy as best as possible when I semi lock it and push past the AR fps limits
You bring up LCT and hi caps being an option. But I'll have you know, that my LCT PP19 hates BOTH mids and hi cap mags. Especially the hi cap it came with. It'll cycle its low caps
Noob question : does this apply to low cap too? I imagine that having less BB's require less pressure/smaller spring wich would not cause as much pressure as a fully loaded mid cap? I'm using Arcturus variable DMAG set on low cap, does this make a difference?
I've just got the same specna arms (i could just barely afford it) do you recommend taking it apart before its first game to grease it? I realize i lose my warranty
Can someone please help me I have a jg bar 10 fully loaded it won’t feed bbs because the mag wont sit high enough for the mag to fully engage any ideas on how to fix this
Talking about about midcap syndrome as if everyone knows what you mean doesn't make you a hypocrite, it makes you ignorant. But either way you explained it pretty much dead on! Cheers for that
They could copy JG G36 nozzle with a slider on top and hu chamber with a spring loaded tab. I think it was to prevent double feeding but it would surely help keeping the nozzle down.
definitively a high cap user here, but one question regarding the nozzle fitment tho, the nozzle may wobble a bit on the cylinder head when by themselves, but what about the whole assembly? if the Hop up block doesn't allow much movement for the nozzle, then it should not interfer with the loading of the bb's and therefore the goal would be to get the smoothest movement of the nozzle on the cylinder head? (since the nozzle would not move much thanks to the Hop up Block). Would a Delayer be a better solution then since it will keep the nozzle open for longer?
may i add that it's all purely theorytical, in the case of having the proper nozzle to hop up block fitment (not even counting for the tappet plate stiffness and the hop up bucking)
@@floriangravouil1456 I'm thinking you're right. We should be able to, with the gun fully assembled, poke up into the mag well with an unjamming rod to see if there is movement of the nozzle inside the hop unit (maybe test the nozzle multiple times at different positions/extensions just to be safe?). If there is none, then "nozzle wobble" should be ruled out as the cause for any feed issues that do exist.
I only use mids, but yeesh...I have to keep a Word document detailing which of my mids work with which replicas. One only feeds Elite Force, one only feeds MAG or Modify brand, one will feed any mid so long as it has a metal shell, etc. Meanwhile, every hicap I've ever owned has fed in every replica I've owned without issue.
Just bought my first aeg. Never liked winding hi caps. I like mid caps so i can reload after doing what the high caps do and spurt 100+ bbs up the wall
i see in your ocllection some of those guns lok incredible..and the paints better than ive seen yet on the open market, where would i find a gun like that? i wannna actually play with it tho, idc the cost or rarity i want something jaw dropping
@@NegativeAirsoftTech is there anyform on social i can contact you on ? im in the u.s and would like to hear what your thoughts and opinions on having goood goood good guns built for me
Bought epm 2 mid cap i think 250bbs? They were great. I have Scar H high cap tho and the mag is full metal and it never rattles, is so good i now use it and it normally last me one game easily. I have 2 mid caps as back up but so far didn't have a need to use them.
I've bought two metal mid caps that swap from 30 to 140 and I've got a high cap that cane with my gun. I like to have the option to change my capacity depending on the game/environment I'm in.
I play cqb and with all the constant shooting from everybody. You are not going to notice any rattle from a high cap mag. Ics are my favorite kind of high cap because they have the smoothest winding wheel.
i prefer mid caps because i play in the woods with a smallish group of people. 8-15 and i wear a ghillie with silenced hpa. stealth is very important to me and i don’t mind mid caps. i’ve personally never had to deal with midcap syndrome before and i run the EPM1’s without any issue (aside from a couple odin rebuild kits…)
How do you not have your pipes freeze? Its 19 here and my pipes are fucked. My Bestie had his tap on a steady drip and the pipes to his washer still burst 😢 I havent seen pix but it sounds like his washer area is fucKed with a capital “K”.
Hi team i got the following problem: ive got these 130rounds classic army m4 mid cap magazines and they all and i mean all jamm. So the bb's get stuck inside the mag just before they enter the "feeding well" if you know what i mean? its got ramps on each side so the bbs come out single stacked and usually they jamm right there were the ramps beginn. Anyones got any experience how to fix these? i cant bring myself to just buy other mags for how long i already own those and cant seem to be able to solve that problem, cheers
In my club we use to call midcaps as “Maracas” because of the rattling sound. But after one of my buddies bought an Arcturus HK416 (he has a specific fetish for that replica, no way to fix it), midcap syndrome showed up like a mushroom in july: no freaking way to fit hi-cap magazines in it. 😅 He CAN’T fit hi-cap mags into that. And I even tried some of my stanag mags to see which fits or not. So, in the middle of an engage, you’re screwed, because changing midcaps is a waste of time, while with a rattling one you unload whatever bbs you want. And I did not talked about refilling them…
I'm not seeing anyone talking about how he started to get heated half way through, until then he was making really good points about why people should run Hi caps. But once he started to curse and call them "stupid ass" at 13:35 he stopped trying to convince mid cap exclusive people and started to use emotions in a logic based argument.
I normally use mid-caps (epm 150s, krytac 150s or Specna 120s) and got no problem at all. Still have two spare hi-caps I give to friends or teammates but never use them personally, just can’t stand the rattle and the compulsion to wind it…
Taking your hand off the gun to wind a mag in an awkward direction is a nightmare, I can't stand firing 10bbs then having to wind its shit. Mid caps will always be my favorite.
@@lordcaoliki2168 for me is more like “have to wind this piece of crap or a Hpa lmg shooting 30rps full auto 0,36s with 1,5joule is going to pre-fire me into hell!” kinda situation. Yes we have 1,5j full auto here, even in cqb. Shit gets wild…
so, where might I be able to buy spare sight parts for my cyma M-14? I've looked at a few websites with no luck and I'd rather not take real rear peep sights and modify them to fit an airsoft gun
In other videos where you short stroke 3 teeth, I usually hear you say you took 2 off the pickup and 1 release side, but in this one it's 2 off the release and 1 pickup side. Was there any reason for it being the other way around? Is there any real significant difference in how it works between those two ways?
What I really like about this channel is that by not trying to appease the airsoft masses, it instead collects some decent people in the comment section giving their take and letting an airsoft noob like me see some good points being made on both sides of whatever the discourse happens to be about. stay you
the best cure to mag rattle is to ask the guy in his milsim Operaytor vest is to jump up an down,ah, seems your gear is louder than my misses when when i tell her to turn off married at first sight to watch stoke vs west Bromwich Albion 0-0 .
I have the fly 5 rubber from begadi and I am really impressed So far. Just ordered their cnc pro nozzle, 28tpa mamba motor and omega style tensioner nub, excited to test them :p
I switched to gas because they don't suck balls to work on. Forced me to become a better shot because I have limited bbs to work with. I would sooner simp real caps before hi caps
My issues with highcaps: they rattle, you don't always know how much tension (read: shots before you have to wind again) is in the clockwork spring, the winding wheel is a drag to use (flash mags are a thing, but they introduce another failure point), that clockwork spring is easy to break if you're a caveman like me and overwind the shit out of them, and you can very easily jam a highcap. There's also the issue that a lot of milsim organizers don't allow highcaps (and limit the number of mags you can carry)... but they will allow EPM1s which are close enough in capacity.
I had a highcap for my m4 and it was garbage, it wouldnt feed at all i literally had to hold the gun upside down to use it, midcaps use a spring with constant pressure to push a new bb into the barrel highcaps use a gear system and rely on bbs to keep the pressure in order for it to feed new rounds and that is unreliable
The thing I love about hi caps is the ability of carrying so many bbs etc. But most of all it's amazing for new players. New players don't want mid caps and spending more and more on mags. Then worrying about making sure this and that. They want to bang some bbs in a hi cap and get out there to explore the hobby.
As a new player i wanted mod caps. My aeg came with a high cap and a mid cap. Airsoft gi had a special if you got an aeg you got two elite force mid caps to go with it. I never use the high cap
As a new player I despised hicap mags. The mags feel so shitty. You never know when you're going to dry fire. With midcaps I know I got around 250 bbs to shoot and then I know I have to switch
The only reason I ever put deans connectors on my guns in the first place was because I (used to) have RC cars with deans. So, I had loads of deans batteries.

Nah, Silent Industries Alpha chamber is where it’s at nowadays.

And I did not talked about refilling them…
I'm not seeing anyone talking about how he started to get heated half way through, until then he was making really good points about why people should run Hi caps. But once he started to curse and call them "stupid ass" at 13:35 he stopped trying to convince mid cap exclusive people and started to use emotions in a logic based argument.
Does anyone know what barrel shroud that is? It looks really sexy
I normally use mid-caps (epm 150s, krytac 150s or Specna 120s) and got no problem at all. Still have two spare hi-caps I give to friends or teammates but never use them personally, just can’t stand the rattle and the compulsion to wind it…
Taking your hand off the gun to wind a mag in an awkward direction is a nightmare, I can't stand firing 10bbs then having to wind its shit. Mid caps will always be my favorite.
@@lordcaoliki2168 for me is more like “have to wind this piece of crap or a Hpa lmg shooting 30rps full auto 0,36s with 1,5joule is going to pre-fire me into hell!” kinda situation.
Yes we have 1,5j full auto here, even in cqb.
Shit gets wild…
@@lordcaoliki2168 if it only feeds 10 you've just got shitty high caps. Get some Lonex mags, full wind will feed all but about 15 bbs in the tube.
so, where might I be able to buy spare sight parts for my cyma M-14? I've looked at a few websites with no luck and I'd rather not take real rear peep sights and modify them to fit an airsoft gun

@@NegativeAirsoftTech I'll get the paddles then, thanks
I'll have you know my unicycle has been preforming excellent ever since I put Pirelli tires on it.
I've not seen those connectors before but I'd put deans connectors on a gun whether it was £5 or £500
Good tip about the nozzle
In other videos where you short stroke 3 teeth, I usually hear you say you took 2 off the pickup and 1 release side, but in this one it's 2 off the release and 1 pickup side.
Was there any reason for it being the other way around? Is there any real significant difference in how it works between those two ways?
Build dependant.
Gear ratio, sector delayer, barrel length, battery, motor... lots going on
@@NegativeAirsoftTech fair enough, thanks for the reply.
Dude where can i find the background music you use? I've never heard this synthwave before..
I drag it from YT...
It's like -20 for half the year where I live lol
I like hicaps for new guns that I havn't got any midcaps for yet
i have TM Scar H recoil shock needs a repair sounds horrific internally
What I really like about this channel is that by not trying to appease the airsoft masses, it instead collects some decent people in the comment section giving their take and letting an airsoft noob like me see some good points being made on both sides of whatever the discourse happens to be about. stay you
the best cure to mag rattle is to ask the guy in his milsim Operaytor vest is to jump up an down,ah, seems your gear is louder than my misses when when i tell her to turn off married at first sight to watch stoke vs west Bromwich Albion 0-0 .
Hey you ever get your hands on a GBLS DAS? If so, what do you think about it?
first one I fired broke on first shot, the rest were fine but they're horrible & noisey. Not worth the money.
@@NegativeAirsoftTech yeah its hard to justify $1700 for a base gun. Might as well put that towards a real gun
Yay for hi-caps!
Vids that use white bat audio are always better. Approved 👍

what are your thoughts on the begadi made/brand parts?
Most are basic rebranded acm, but they have some interesting stuff like hops and rubbers
Their hop rubbers are probably the most quality engineered rubber you can get
They're ar15 hop unit are really cool, you can adjust everything. No more missfeed and nice adjustability on every brands.
Begadi are basically rebranded Military Action parts.
I have the fly 5 rubber from begadi and I am really impressed So far. Just ordered their cnc pro nozzle, 28tpa mamba motor and omega style tensioner nub, excited to test them :p

I will never wind a hi cap ever again… how silly that that look tickling your gun mag😅
I switched to gas because they don't suck balls to work on. Forced me to become a better shot because I have limited bbs to work with. I would sooner simp real caps before hi caps
What do you think of jg bevel gears heard somewhere they are some of the strongest
My issues with highcaps: they rattle, you don't always know how much tension (read: shots before you have to wind again) is in the clockwork spring, the winding wheel is a drag to use (flash mags are a thing, but they introduce another failure point), that clockwork spring is easy to break if you're a caveman like me and overwind the shit out of them, and you can very easily jam a highcap. There's also the issue that a lot of milsim organizers don't allow highcaps (and limit the number of mags you can carry)... but they will allow EPM1s which are close enough in capacity.
Dude the winding of the mag was painful lol. Flash mags are really the thing lol.
I never understood the hype with maxx parts when I could get stock parts or cheaper standard replacement parts to work as well or better.
i just honestly hate the rattle of high caps and i like reloading
🤣🤣🤣.."I wish i was a Jedi"...
HAHAHAHAHAHA "i like anime" fucking SENT me
I like using electric hi-caps.
I had a highcap for my m4 and it was garbage, it wouldnt feed at all i literally had to hold the gun upside down to use it, midcaps use a spring with constant pressure to push a new bb into the barrel highcaps use a gear system and rely on bbs to keep the pressure in order for it to feed new rounds and that is unreliable
I run with 5 hicaps (380rds). I don't mind winding nor do I mind the rattle
Hi-cap mags : Like Watson offering his hand shake to Holmes's brother.... "Noooo" Sherlock:" yeah he doesn't do that". 🤣
I only use hicaps if they're flash mags. Those things are crazy.
I very much dislike winding high caps and I’ve never met someone who has experienced “mid cap” syndrome
Well, GIYF...
Are lowcaps fine?
The thing I love about hi caps is the ability of carrying so many bbs etc. But most of all it's amazing for new players. New players don't want mid caps and spending more and more on mags. Then worrying about making sure this and that. They want to bang some bbs in a hi cap and get out there to explore the hobby.
Liar
@@planetcaravan2925 instead of being a one comment knob. How about you care to explain
As a new player i wanted mod caps. My aeg came with a high cap and a mid cap. Airsoft gi had a special if you got an aeg you got two elite force mid caps to go with it. I never use the high cap
As a new player I despised hicap mags. The mags feel so shitty. You never know when you're going to dry fire. With midcaps I know I got around 250 bbs to shoot and then I know I have to switch
New Player, never wanted high caps. Some nice Midcaps to be able to shoot a little while and have some reloads enhances the fun for me.
The only reason I ever put deans connectors on my guns in the first place was because I (used to) have RC cars with deans. So, I had loads of deans batteries.
That was an XT60.
