Silicon oil on mags

Hey, I was wondering if I use my GBB lube (airsoft innovations) will be okay to lube my mid caps. Will it damage the mag or damage the guns hopup or will it be fine. Also are bbs that have silicon in them bad for the gun or no?

Thanks,
Carl

It's fine to use. Using a very little amount will make it feed better, but unless it's not feeding properly, it's not necessary. Too much oil will make your hopup effect inconsistent and affect accuracy.

Why lube your mag?
If BBs start to have oil on them, and run through your inner barrel, your shot will be going all over the place, and decrease velocity.

oh what if i put 3 drops is that ok? I had feeding issues during a game thats why. Can you tell me what are the reasons for misfeeding mags? When im testing my mags at home they shoot fine on full and semi with no problems, but during a game after 2-3hours on the feild they start misfeeding, any suggestions?

Your hop up. Sometimes the wheel gets loose and moves around..
