flyinverted Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Best advice a shooter gave me for the MBX mags was to ALWAYS clean them with a brush if they hit the ground. I didn't do that ONCE and the next stage had a mis-feed. Never have had that happen since I started brushing them if they hit the dirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mags for 2011s, 1911, CZs, in my humble opinion, need to be cleaned out whenever they come in contact with dirt, dust, sand, mud, etc. If your range is nice grass or larger stone you could get away with it if it doesn't feel gritty when loading it back up. For striker fired, I couldn't be bothered to clean those mags in any condition. MBX's are my go to 2011 mags but I haven't bought any for CZs. The Mec-gars are great. I've used Taran, CZC, Taylor Freelance and Team AC pads with them with mostly Gram's springs and followers. I'm still testing the Team AC kits as well as the Rune Tactical kits as I don't trust them yet. Most of the time having 24 in the mag doesn't make a difference so I end up using a mag with Gram's kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwiaftm Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 What brush are y’all using that’s fast enough to do between stages? I wouldn’t call our range extra dusty but you can see some buildup after a single drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogtired Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 look for some paintball cleaning brushes that are cheap and work well. Not an endorsement of this seller just an example... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
