Good, I was looking at a box set of midcap -74 mags by MAG.

Some guns just don't like them, and some people don't like the plastic.

Plastic is good in my case since I have bakelite orange.

A lot of CA guns don't like MAGs I know that. Don't buy from CA is a good solution.

My new guns' manual talks about discharging the battery, How would I go about that?

See, the included battery for your gun is a NiCD, aka the worst battery type possible. As they're used, they develop memory, which decreases their battery life and decreases performance. The way you stop excess memory from being created is by discharging the battery after every usage so that it is stored with no power. You'd have to buy a dedicated battery discharger to discharge a battery.
The next step up is NiMH which is basically the same exact thing except that it doesn't create memory, and you can store them charged or uncharged.
The best are Lipos which have significantly greater power and battery life, but if you drain the battery two far, it will ruin the battery.

you have to use a smart charger to do that

Okay, got my .20g bbs in. Instant jam in the gun. So I'm going to go pick up some lube later this week.

Detail I noticed: when I remove the mag, there is usually two bbs in the "chamber". Does that point out a particular problem?

Those bb's that fall out are the ones that went out of the mag but not in the hop up. I think it is like that with every gun.

[cardfan212]

Notrabies what is the usual velocity on your KJW 1911?

[notrabies]

Mine is well broken in, so normally right about 300. I think it was closer to 320-330 when it was new.

[cardfan212]

Ok, that's good. Just right for my field.

That would seem to indicate something wrong with either the bucking or the air nozzle. Shine a flashlight into the receiver, into the tube where the BBs load, and dry fire. If the nozzle doesn't move smoothly and consistently your tappet plate is unseated. Otherwise the bucking may be improperly installed.

Edit: Unless you just mean two BBs fall out, because that's normal.

You cannot find them. The Russians put every single one of them on a rocket ship headed straight for the sun.

Any alternatives (hopefully besides GRAD)?

Tl;dr, all the surplus ones were sold already and they are no longer produced as Russia phases them out with MOLLE vests. However because of this there will be more surplus 6Sh92 variants eventually.

[cardfan212]

Condor or Pantac need to start making repro Russian stuff. Just like Propper needs to make repro Russian BDUs (and UCP-D).

I don't have experience with any of them, but most smart chargers should be good afaik

[notrabies]

You use a NiCad battery, you don't need a battery charger, you need a battery discharger like this: http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_inf...oducts_id=5014
A smart charger will help prevent overcharging a battery and its highly recommended you get one eventually, but it will not discharge anything.

Sorry about that. My cheapo chinese one also discharges, so i made the assumption that almost all of them did

Thanks mate, also bookmarked that website.

I do wonder why they don't include a discharger.

So I got my bullet ants today but something worries me. There a gap in between the bridge of my nose and the goggles, can a BB get through? And how can I eliminate that

Depends how big it is, Just grab a BB and try holding it up to it and try to push it through. And try it at angles too. If not if that's a replacement you may be able to cut the material from your old goggles and hot glue it over.

Also, is it intentional?
