100 round magazines cannot be loaded to limit and much less.


  • Hello - I just received my 400E with two 100 round magazines. Unless I am doing something wrong I can only get about 11 pushes when loading and the mags seem to hold much less than 50 BBs. Any recommendations here? I am using the Barra steel BBs as well. Thank you.



  • I just got mine yesterday and had the same problem.  didn't have much time to fight it so I just loaded about 60 at a time and it worked for the most part.  50 round clip worked flawless.  I wonder if some lube on the magazine would help or maybe a shot of lube mixed into the bbs might help.  Any tips or ideas are welcome.  Thanks,


  • FOLLOW UP TO PREVIOUS REPLY.   I put a brief shot of WD40 fast dry silicone spray in the hole of each clip and a brief shot into the bottle of BBs and mixed well.  I had no more hang ups all afternoon prolly went through 10 clips.  Was actually fun compared to the previous outings where it was constant unplugging magazines.  Even feeds easier and quicker.....Good Luck..... I hope there are no long term problems but for now its perfect.
