I ended up getting a KS/JG P90 a few weeks ago along with a MOLLE vest with these ( www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?products_id=30926 ) magazine pouches to hold my three MAG midcaps. I had heard these pouches were tight so I did what a few others had done and I shifted the top flap up (since it is originally adjusted such that the flap is directly behind the elastic) AND I left the magazines in the pouches for a couple days to loosen them up. Since then I have currently broken the abs plastic clip off the end of two of my three magazines. I tried using 5 minute epoxy and that was not very strong so I am considering getting some specialized epoxy for plastics. So I have a few questions:
1. Due to the small size of the broken pieces will the plastic weld melt too much of the clip?
2. Would cutting the elastic off the pouch be a bad idea?
3. What other things can I do to keep myself from breaking these?
Please note that I am not brutal with my equipment (I paid for it so I want it to work) and I ended up causing all of this trouble by using two hands to try to finesse the magazine out but I was lacking a bit of needed grace. I would eventually like to be able to do this one handed.
