So.

I still haven't been able to fix the problem fully. I reinstalled the original nozzle, and took the recommendation of putting Velcro in the back of the mag well as opposed to the front where I had it before.

My King Arms seems to shoot fine with the King Arms high-cap that came with my gun (no miss-fires, and consistent FPS), but I'm continuing to have problems with most of my mid-caps (mix of King Arms and MAG brand).

Is it possible that it's an issue related to the spring tension inside the mag. Are the mid-cap springs too weak to move BBs up into the hop up chamber? Is this perhaps a problem with the hop-up unit? Have the offending mid-caps reached the end of their life?

I was playing today and noticed a similar problem with my mid-caps on my VFC scar. With the VFC the problem is not as severe; it miss-fires every 5th BB or so. The same mag in the King Arms will fire the first shot, but none after that.
