GHK AK 30 Real cap limiters

thingiverse

Magazine limiters to reduce the maximal capacity of the factory magazines to 30 so that you don't overload using a speedloader. Why limit to 30 rounds? i) Loading to 30 ensures that you'll never cycle the magazine hard enough to observe cooldown effects regardless of operating temp/environment (on Propane). Once you've expended 30, swap to a fresh mag and you'll still be shooting as consistently as your previous mag ii) On partial mags after a game, you want to load it back to exactly 30 rounds and have no way to check how many rounds are in the magazine. Using the limiter/blocker ensures that you never overload with a speedloader/Odin; and... iii) Loading only to 30 also mitigates most feeding issues induced from tensioning the follower spring excessively (i.e. loading to 50) iv) Manual-of-arms, immersion. Some owners would be using airsoft as an alternative to RS to train with for cost reasons and 30 round mags makes every sense in the world as the GHK mags don't have reliable baseplate extensions that would allow it mimic a 35 round mag I've printed using PLA with 0.15mm layers, best layer strength and also sufficient fidelity such that the follower spring doesn't bind on the layer lines. Remember to print from the base up, the .stl orientation is not ready for printing.
