Eligos Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 So my fiance's Echo1 XCR-C will not fit ANY mid-caps that I've purchased for it.I have tried:Elite Force 140rdKWA K120 120rdG&P Evike High RPS 130rdEvike.com BAMF 190rdNot a single one will slide in without making me worry about breaking the magwell. I've contemplated filing/sanding down the magazines or magwell.Does anyone have any advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomahawk Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 (edited) Not a single one will slide in without making me worry about breaking the magwell. What exactly do you mean by "break" the magwell? have you given any of the mags a little slap when loading them into the rifle? It could just have a tight well.

Tomahawk Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I see, is it the Polymer or metal XCR? if its the polymer one is there any sort of uneven plastic/any burrs on the inside of the magwell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eligos Posted April 24, 2018 Author Share Posted April 24, 2018 Its a polymer XCR. I've been trying to inspect the inside to find where most of the contact is coming from, but haven't been having much luck.Been hand-sanding down the BAMF magazine to little success, may have to switch to sanding a little bit from the magwell. How is the airsoft scene at doing magazine trades?She'll need at least 2 mid-caps for this Mutual Combat event and I'll do whatever it takes to make sure she can play, so she isn't stuck carrying only a single high-cap.

Tomahawk Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 If anything I'd recommend sanding the magwell that way the rifle can accept more than just the mags you've sanded. if you need, I should have a couple mags that she could borrow for the Mutual Combat game, they'd be K120s though. I have a couple other misc. midcaps as well we could try out. I'll be on green team w/ an AS VAL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 If you bought it recently from a business, I'd exchange it before trying to modify the rifle itself. You'd void any warranty and potentially make it difficult to resell later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
