!!!
It seemed pretty stiff on mine so I didn't think it was supposed to open. A bit of prying got it done.
... look we all have Forrest Gump moments sometimes ok??
do they always rattle like hell? kinda lowers the stealth factor.
p.s. thanks for the assist0 -

ya thats the disadvantage to the high capicity, main reason a lot of ppl don't use them, but it's personal choice, realism/playability
use the thank you button, would be my first
This is what came with the gun and I just ordered a spare. will have to look for mid-caps.
i'm also wondering why the heck I forked out on a speed loader if you can just pour them in!?! *Dumbass* 0 -

Componentshop.co.uk do a basic airsoft smart charger, and do batteries too.
For now I think you generally do the division mentioned before, and add 10 percent more time to compensate for inefficiencies, a smart charger will do this for you with auto cut off, an usually have a discharge function too.
Thx. That's what i did last night but I added about 20% just in case. I'll be replacing this battery before too long anyway.The speed loader will be handy in future, if you get some mid caps, I believe you can get cheap enough mag brand mids on ehobby.
Do you generally go mid or low? There are some nice Tokyo Marui mags on Airsoft Eire, they're not cheap but look the biz.Its hard to find a vest though that suits g36 mags, I think you would need a tripple stanag pouch to hold two g36 mags.
or I was thinking a double to hold single mags perhaps ... depends also on how many mags i'll need. I haven't budgeted for lots of mags, I thought 2 hicaps would be ok but this rattle will do my head in 0 -
Id go with 100 rounds or so per mag about, lower and you'll be reloading constantly given the nature of airsoft and heavy trigger fingers
I think a lot of people have 5 or 7 mids, plus one emergency Hi-cap mag filled so it doesn't rattle.
I used to have 2 hi-caps that Id use, now I'm doing a loadout with 5 mids and one hi-cap, haven't tried it yet though but It seems fairly common.0 -

So "ammo conservation" is not a concept airsofters are familiar with?
I think i'll probably do that eventually, won't be airsofting much in coming months so will have time to develop my kit.0 -

If you conserve ammo, you are either very good and getting lots of clean hits, or very crap and out of range and out of the battle:D
I'm happy to be in the middle and get through a few 100 rounds, I'm not that much of a skirmisher yet:D0 -

What did they call 'em in Vietnam ... Rear Echolon M##### F######? That'd be me, out of the fight 0 -
As I've said before, if you look at the price of decent batteries, you'll see that €50 isn't so bad for a good charger. I doubt you'll get a well-known brand for cheaper (trust me, I researched before I bought) and it should pay for itself with keeping your batteries alive, as well as fast-charging.MacAonghusa wrote: »Thx kevteljeur, I was thinking of getting one alright as the one that came with the gun is pretty sh1t ... the pins aren't even bloody wide enough for our sockets and will probably break before too long.

I'm finding I can fit one G36 mag per pouch in my vest, which would normally hold 2 STANAG/M16 mags. However, those notches on the side to clip extra mags together to make them tricky to get into and out of the pouches which is irritating. On the other hand, you can keep up to 3 mags on your gun at a time, which is good.
As you might have seen from my post on the 'Experiences with Airsoft Retailers' I've got an order (sort of, I'd better clear that up) with a British retailer for stuff, that would be a box of Star G36 mid-caps, 140 rounds each, so good-bye baby-rattles! But that set-up you've suggested sounds good, with having a hi-cap for emergencies.
They cost 35 sterling for a box of 5 mags - a good deal, else I'd have bought local.0 -
