Fast firing needs a fast and reliable bullet feeding mechanism. How fast can your magazine feed? Our experience shows that low-cap mags feed very fast but can be easily emptied in less than two seconds. Hi-cap mags feed slower and tend to be less reliable.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/mini-CIMG1073.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-738\" alt=\"mini-CIMG1073\" src=\"http:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/mini-CIMG1073-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/mini-CIMG1073-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/mini-CIMG1073.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/P1000373.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-740\" alt=\"P1000373\" src=\"http:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/P1000373-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/P1000373-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/airsoftpress.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/P1000373.jpg 614w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>One recommended way to improve the feeding mechanism is to replace the stock plastic hopup unit with a one-piece metal hopup. Field reports show that the one-piece type of hopup tends to allow significant ROF improvement and almost-complete elimination of mis-firing. Not all gun models have this kind of chamber though.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The true bottle neck on ROF is not the mechbox, but the BBs feeding mechanism.
