looking for plastic ideally, anyone know which ones work or which don't even?

Re: advice on mid caps for G&G top tech AK47
Well as they are a TM basis (most AKs are anyway) you shouldn't have much issues with mids.
Personally I can recommend the CYMA and the STAR ones (but not the newer Ares) mid-caps. Best to get the CYMA ones.
Also MAG ones are a good bet, if you want a box full of them and they have the style you like.

Better sticking with the CYMA or MAG ones for an AK.

Re: advice on mid caps for G&G top tech AK47
odd, never had moments trouble with my Vietnam stlye king arms mags
but taking the advice anyway, unfortunately it seems Cyma are metal (and i need at least ten for gunman realcap games) and Mag only seem to do waffle and bakelite (that i can find) and i'm a total NamSofter

Then get the STAR ones, you can get a box of 10 mids or reals for dirt cheap, they are plastic and well held together for what they are.

Re: advice on mid caps for G&G top tech AK47
Aye. Still looking out for those but my usual places don't have any.
I was under the impression that STAR became ARES or some such?

CYMA ones are awesome; they're built very, very well. Had nothing but problems with star mags in the past- pouch fillers...

Sort of Ares took over from STAR and dropped the quality along with the price.
The older STAR mid-caps had little to no issues at all but the new Ares ones are often terrible.

Re: advice on mid caps for G&G top tech AK47
Well I'll get a few CYMA and keep looking for MAG in the correct style as I kinda wanted plastic
CYMA do a RPK 40 Round style that will give an edge at realcap games lol

Re: advice on mid caps for G&G top tech AK47
I have MAG M4/M16 midcaps, bloody brilliant manufacturer, I also had MP5 mids a while ago, not a single problem at all! :-)

Re: advice on mid caps for G&G top tech AK47
I'm lead to believe GG AKs are pretty fussy by comparison to M4s though
