If you're worried about your BBs ruining your gun then you should stop using those BBs.
You need to diagnose whether or not your feeding problems are related to your gun, your magazine or the BBs themselves.
If you have some other BBs, load those up and shoot them. Do you still have feeding problems? If so, the problem may lie with your AEG or magazine.
On another note, you need to clean up your spelling and punctuation.

Most airsoft bb's are actually made in China. Not all but most. Sounds like you need to do some more research on different brands as well. I've used Fidragon bb's in the past and they worked fine in my airsoft guns. I won't say they are the best, but they certainly aren't the worst in my opinion.
Do as Gimp suggested by trying other bb's and see if you are getting the same results with your gun before you fault the bbs.
Also when is the last time you cleaned your inner barrel? Since you have an AR based airsoft gun, it's super easy to remove the upper receiver and remove the hop up unit and inner barrel to closely inspect it. I'm not saying you have to remove the inner barrel from the hop up unit but pull out the hop up chamber and inner barrel and hold it up to the light so you can see if there's any dirt or residue in your inner barrel that could be affecting your accuracy.

They are actuality the only bb's i have at the moment. And yes I stopped using them obviously. I have never had feeding problems as bad as a skip or clog every 5-6 shots before. I will clean my gun out though. Thanks

The barrel and hopup rubber need to be cleaned even it's new from the factory. Also the 0.20 bb might be too light for your FPS if your FPS is higher than 300-310 FPS.

Some BB's come coated in a very fine powder like substance. Typically I wash all BB's before use to keep this from happening. DO NOT do this to bio's. Jams can quite literally be caused by almost anything. Cold, mags, hop up, nub, bucking, barrel, nozzle alignment and BB's can all cause jams if not properly maintained. Make sure to cover all your bases.

1 - Please use specific thread topics. The topic of your thread should let the reader know what the thread is about. Mods have full authority to re-title threads, but we would rather you took care of this yourself. Please pick a more descriptive thread title. If someone found this thread via search, they'd have no way of knowing whether it was really about BBs or whether you accidentally caught your foot in a bear trap.

As a good general rule of thumb, don't buy BBs from Amazon. They don't carry the ones I use (I'm rather picky about what BBs I will and won't use in my guns), and what they do have is usually crap. Look at airsoft retailer websites, or better yet find a local airsoft store (assuming there is one) and support them, you'll find many more choices that are higher quality.

My gun shoots 350fps(cqb) with .20's so it can't be your bb is to light. I personably use BB's made by G&G they are great high quality BB's for a good price.
