Apperently CA mags work in TM guns. But do they work well enough to where I should just buy the CA ones and not the TM ones?

Why would you only buy CA ones? Are they cheaper?
Are you talking about hi-caps or standards?

The CA hicap mags have a history of misfeeds and generally aren't as reliable as the TM mags. I haven't heard much about the CA standard mags, but I don't see how they could screw up a standard. I personally have a CA hicap MP5 mag and have never had problems with it, but it's not as well built or good looking as a TM mag.
*edit* Yep Jacko, CA mags are usually a fair bit cheaper. That's pretty much the only reason to get them if you're willing to take the risk of a posible faulty mag.

I got a little input on this subject, I just bought a CA M16 Hicap and it's been a real bitch it's been misfeeding like crazy but, I think I know why after some taking apart and looking. Theres a small gear with a weight countersinking it. I think the axel holding it is slightly to long causing it to bind into the outer casing of the mag not allowing it to feed BB's while the spring decompresses. My fix thus far is to beat it on my knee and it free's up but that really sucks in a firefight:) This weekend I will be going into a little further and looking for a long term fix, I'll post the results.

Well I sometimes wear my protec sidecut but the reason they do that is to seat all the rounds to the back of the clip or at least thats what I always heard. But yeah even with ultra realism it sucks:) I took more kills with my glock at the last game because my mag was being a bitch:)
