Hop Up question
will a prowin hopup work in the MK16 FN VFC Scar L AEG
also elite force 130 mid cap mags will not feed till you go fully automatic for about 4 or 5 rounds then once it picks up it feeds fine any ideas. .

Any and all SCARs have their own proprietary hop up units. Just like M4s, there is a 1 piece and a 2 piece. But M4 and SCAR hop up units are not cross compatible.
Unless the prowin unit is SCAR specific, it won't work.

And for the magazines, try pushing it to one side or the other, forward or backwards or up, and see if any of these help it in any way. That would be if the feeding issue was associated with magazine placement in the magwell/how it engages the hop up unit feeding tube.

For future posts, please try to clean up your grammar, use punctuation, and utilize proper capitalization. The mods we have here like to keep this forum looking professional.

Anyways, for your midcaps you could have a couple of problems:
As t6 stated, your magazine placement may be a little bit off. If this is the case, a little bit of electrical tape on the mags themselves can usually give you a little bit snugger of a fit.

However, to me it sounds like your midcaps aren't quite broken in yet. I was having the same problems with the EF mags, but after I lubed them with some silicone spray and loaded them several times they worked perfect. While mine weren't in a VFC, the situation seems pretty similar.

Puma 1 really ? I'm not here for your judgment nor am I in an English class NOR am I pretending to be an executive from Nasa. So keep your comments to the subject at hand.
and I'm new to the forum not to the world of airsoft just to the VFC scar. Elite Force mags we have used in every make of gun we have with no issue's and further more these mags are not new, and breaking in mags really. May I suggest you search on you tube " breaking in mid cap mags" you may be a touch embarrassed..

Would like to thank T6e9a for your input, i had seen where the stock hopup and the nub were having issues and i appreciate your input as for the mags i did move them in every direction with no positive results. They still won't feed properly until you go full auto for at least 4 or 5 rounds then it feeds fine, and that was going through 20 mags. That's why i kind of thought it may be either the hop up or just a design flaw of the mags, for this particular gun. we have had really good success with these mags in all our other m4 guns..
Thanks again.

Puma1, you may also want to review the above mentioned rules and guidelines.

Check out your hop up bucking as well and make sure it isn't pinching anywhere. What Puma said is a valid suggestion, had the same problem with my Elite Force mags. Next time don't be such an asshole when somebody gives you a suggestion. People won't be so likely to help next time.

Thanks again.

I really was trying to help. From my experience, loading and unloading the mags/all other forms of 'breaking in' the mids did not help much at all. After I lubed them, however, everything you're having problems with was fixed.

Also, I'm sorry for giving my first hand experience and solution to an almost identical problem I encountered... I won't let it happen again.

Best of luck to you. I hope you get your problem figured out and can get out playing soon.

Oh, and sorry Gimp.
