G&P 130 Rounds M16

[M4A1gunner]

Does any one know if the G&P 130 Rounds M16 are any good in a TM M4A1

[D_Man]

Taken from acounts of 4 people, the G&P 130 rounders are the best thing around. Able to hold a large amount of ammo in spring fed configuration as to prevent infamous "high-cap rattle". They are also priced very cheap compared to even regular low-caps.

Only issues I have heard-

-Don't properly fit some metal bodies (easy to fix though)

-Need to be worn in before you can easily load all 130 BBs effectively.

Not really, I could jam all 130 into the 5 I bought from the start-just needed to jam the loading rod in hard, short increments, instead of a clean push through the whole full loading tool.

I guess the spring inside causes it to release 4 bbs instead of around 2 with a new TM standard when you take the mag out. No problem though...

I don't like the color of the mags, they almost match the grey A2 and M4 receivers of the TM guns, and help it look more plasticy. Paint them like the TM standards though, and it would definately be cooler.

Oh yeah, they also wobble slightly in the magwell

Every type of mag on every type of AEG I have ever seen wobbles on the mag well. Unless its really drastic, like several cm difference, its just normal.

Also, I thought real steel M16 mags were kinda grayish? Am I mistaken?

[Maynard]

well, all I know is my standard TM mag doesn't move much at all-but there is a definate difference in the TM wobble (hardly any, I'd say there wasn't any) and the GP wobble, which is quite noticeable.

regardless of what color the real M16 mags are, I'd prefer mine to be be dark-as the TM standards are-not completely black, perhaps I said the wrong thing.

[Gooch]

i've seen black real steel mags, ive seen gray, i've seen silver.
its a color, you could make it whatever you want.

I still prefer the AE m4/m16 mags. They are more realistic and really do fire 80 percent of the mag on a single rewind. They are also quick and easy to reload, unlike the G&P mags.

Whats all this about mag wobble...


Take a look at my AK... it wobbles.

[Maynard]

Yeah, but the M16 weapons shouldn't really-the TM standards hardly do-so the GP ones are worse in that respect. A small price to pay for nearly twice the ammo capacity though-and still have no shaking, winding, etc.

I rigged mine up with homemade magpuls, and I love them, every gun line should have them, and in time, I suppose they will. Now that they have announced the GP Mp5 mags, we know they intend to continue with their product.

I just want one for my AK :mad: Be it a bakelight, or a 7.62X39mm bannana magazine...

[M4A1gunner]

Im sure there going to become a huge factory with a lot of variety

[Lenny]

Im new here, and I didnt feel like making a new thread, so I just decided to bring up this one...

I just got a TM M4 and got the G&P hicap mag, and the bb's dont go into the gun as well as the stock magazine.

I'm not sure what is causing it, but very few bb's actually enter the chamber when I fire the gun... This makes a lot of dry fireing and makes me worried that it may damage the gun...

The way that the mags are working now, I'd say that one out of every twenty shots actually leave the barrel...

I bought two of them and they both have the same problem...

Has anyone heard of this problem, and know how to fix it? I was shooting .25g bb's... could that be too heavy for it?

Thanks!

The GP 130 round mags have ot be "broken in" the spring is really stiff to begin with, you'll have to load them quite a bit before they start lossening up, and then will become easier to load..

[Maynard]

That doesn't make any sense, I bought 5 of the things at the same time, and I never had any dry firing at all, with .20gram bbs. None with .25s either...so...

Only problem I have with the powerful spring is the last 20 or so bbs, you have to jab them in there several at a time. But thats just during loading...
