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).

6 130rd mids + 1 high cap

I use 2 high caps because I can't afford mids

6-12 mids + 1 backup high cap
1 drum mag for the SAW

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

12 mids, sold my o shit hi cap @ TT.  I just better learn to reload mid caps faster!

I prefer to use mids but I have all three.

ive got mostly hi caps and one 70rnd mid cap.  i enjoy reloading less, but i do plan on switching to mid caps as i can afford it

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 run 3 or 4 hicaps. I want to buy some mids though. I had one but I loaded it too much and it broke. lol.

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.

AK - 5 mids, 2 hi caps
M4/M16 - 10 mids
MP5 - 8 mids


I really like magazines.
