Alrighty folks, this thread's sole purpose is to discussthe advantages/disadvantages of magazine types.
And for just saying what kind of mag is your favorite.

I personally love mid-caps because they hold a good bit of ammo but do not rattle and are semi-milsim.

Mids are definitely good for me.
I carry 8 mids and 1 high cap for back up. I rarely use that high cap.
I am planning to get more soon.

I predict a 10-page mud-slinging contest which will have no real result.

But...

Midcaps all the way. I run 7x 80rnd mids at the moment (6 in vest, 1 in rifle).

In all honesty I like mids, but use whatever I have at the moment.

Usually run 4-mids/low and 2 highcaps each.  Or if it's a small game on our land we just use 4-mids each.

2 hicaps = about 40 bucks (600 rds)

5 mids = 40 bucks (600 rds)

I have both hi-caps and micaps for all my gun(except my M14).  I prefer midcaps, because I hate winding and the rattling that goes with midcaps, but I have to say it is nice to just to carry a couple of extra mags when it's 95 down here in the summer.  I also have a drum mag for my RPK that is awesome.  My new summer favorite.

For my AK and M4's I will primarily be using midcaps from now on.  I will keep my hi-caps for when I am feeling lazy though. ;)
You name a game, I've been to it.

If I've banned you, then you have more than likely deserved it.

If I deleted a post it didn't need to be there or I simply didn't like it.
