Just placed the order at Evike for a CA M15A4 S.P.C. I also ordered an extra 300 round high-cap. I can't wait. Hopefully it will make it here before the Airsoft Expo! If all goes well, I should be able to attend the Red Storm Rising Op.

I got the cheaper hi-cap that was on evike's site. It was Airsoft Elite. It was 13 bucks cheaper then the CA hi-cap that was on that site. We'll see if it's any good. If not, no great loss, just a mag.

do you reuse bb's, and do you drop them on the ground? if so thats why. my mags go straight from my pouch to my gun to my dump pouch. the reason my mid caps jam is because theyre double stacked in the mag. cant get around that, thats how theyre made.

It's called the shift key.


Classic Army magazines tend to be s**t, but my TM Magazines and my Star 30 rounders always feed flawlessly.

Normaly I just get crappy BBs stuck in it. But once my BB holder thingy got shot and some plastic got stuck. Any way it's easy to fix. I never reuse bbs and I rarely drop them

The SPC is nice. Everything you want in an m4, plus a little bit extra. Good choice. And on the mags, any mags will have problems, mid/low caps will jam or misfeed. A highcap will not compress enough. Something is bound to go wrong with a mag either way you go.

I just got my new gun, and it looks sweet. I don't have anywhere to fire it for now, but I dry fired it a couple time to make sure it works. Here are some PICS. The guys at evike apparently had a little fun with the styrofoam box before they sent it out. The back was full of bb's and indentions! Otherwise, product looks/feels good.

The last pic is of some modeling clay....you might be able to guess what I'm going to do with that >>>link to another post<<<.
