Nicoli Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 ok and after that is there anyone that can give a proper sensible answer as to how the box mag thing works? cheers millest  That was a proper sensible answer, sensible to the point that it will save your life on this pic thread  And your soul as you won't be desecrating a poor P90 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HellsAngel Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 Yep, listen to Nicoli's wise advise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
my_plague_666 Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 ok and after that is there anyone that can give a proper sensible answer as to how the box mag thing works? cheers millest  black magic. it is the work of evil. i honestly cant see why you'd need more than the 300 rounds in the standard hicap. hell, i'd rather use the lowcaps than a hicap. i skirmish my AK with 100 round mids and get on fine i dont even use that many either. very rarely more than 4 mids. i just dont see the advantage of that ammount of ammo, its not like you're ever going to use that much in one game, it'd take me about 4 or 5.

millest Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 ok in that case if no one can just answer the question as i asked where can i find cheap hicaps - i only wanted the adaptor as i have plenty of m16/4 mags so didnt want to have to splash out but because the p90 nazis wont just give a straight answer looks like im going to have to Quote Link to post Share on other sites
galactica Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 hello mate Kit is in the post, be with you before monday 1pm  I have a P90 with the Laylax boxmag. Don't let the p90 nazis grind you down...and always be wary of people who care more about a gun's looks than its effectiveness  The way it works is this:  The Box on top of the whole assembly holds 1800 or so rounds. The M4 HICAP sits in a well underneath it. it has to have the loading door open on the M4 mag so the box can gravity-fill the M4 mag. You then wind the m4 mag to keep the p90 fed. It's a weird old system but it works perfectly well and you have somewhere to put a big massive battery too.  The necessity to have the M4 hicap's door open mean you can't slap an m4 midcap in there for midcap action - there's a guide there to hold the hicap's door open.  And yes, the p90 hicaps are a NIGHTMARE to fill & wind. I got fed up of them in 2 skirmishes. I love the gun though. the mags are its greatest flaw. My p90 laylax with extended barrel into the silencer is a fearsome weapon!  Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Donut Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 I've never had a problem with P90 hicaps, it's all in how you reload them. Of course, I hate hicaps anyways, plus I have about 30 mags around, so I don't really have to worry about it. Other than how the hell am I going to carry them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
galactica Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 haha, yes...the carrying of the P90 mags is one of the universe's great unsolved questions..."oh god, please, how DO I carry more than four P90 midcaps without looking like a cheap christmas tree?"

Donut Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 (edited) Solution: Utility Pouch     It can easily fit 9 P90 mags, max is 12 + 1 on the side. though it becomes a little fat and bulky.  EDIT:   As you can see, it holds 9 mags just fine, 12 mags is doable, but it's harder to close and get the mags in/out. I usually only use 4-6 at a time, so I could differentiate between spent mags, partial mags, and full mags using the dividers Edited November 24, 2007 by Donut Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nicoli Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Nice way to carry mags  I just use the viper P90 pouches when I take out my RD, which is a rare day now seeing as my gf has fallen in love with it and therefore it lives at her house Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starburst Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Which Utility pouch is that? I just got a guarder AK pouch which ups my mags from 3 before to 5 (including the one in the gun) for a game tomorrow, cant wait as first time the P90 will be usable without highcaps Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Phantom Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 my P90 crate ... got the idea from the Inokatsu crate so I made one up for myself ... this photo is 3/4 finished, now it has a black interior, OD exterior and rope handles ... the crate is more for show/display as its freakin heavy lol ... now to get a 3rd P90 and I think there's still space for one more  Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pnshr Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 It says "GSG" that means "German Sport Guns"... they import airsoft replicas. Â Almost complete: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

k30dxedle Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 Correct me if I'm wrong, but it appears the accessories (TM lowcap, light, PAQ) are worth more than the gun? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
