Well, umm, self-quoted? Hehe, ya, and it tends to burn my ass when I see "Those that use mag loadouts higher than 30rds are hoses. Play with 30rd mags, you become a better player because you are tactically more careful, yada, yada, yada." Only because it doesn't matter if I use 30rd Star mags, locaps, midcaps, or high caps, I treat each and everyone the same, and play the same no matter what. I choose my ammo weights better than I get picky about numbers of BBs in the mag. Have had enough experiences of 20-30 shots being taken at me using 0.20g BBs, through light brush, and none have gotten through. Dealt with it myself, even after I upgraded my MP5, shot 350fps and even that, would take numerous BBs to get a hit in those conditions. Up the BB weight, more realistic to a point. What would have taken me 10-20rds of 0.20g ammo, would take 3-5rd burst with 0.25g or heavier. Range gets better too. Give me a Star mag loaded with 30 x 0.20g BBs, I'll tell ya where to go. Give me a Star 30rd mag loaded with 0.25g, 0.28g or 0.30g, no problem, that's much higher performance if you know what you are doing for ballistics (case in point, I use 0.30g BBs very effectively in my G19........ shoots around 300fps with 0.20g...... out to 120ft easy. Hell, I could snipe with that thing if it wasn't so loud). Upping the weight on the ammo has greater advantages to ANY airsoft gun than upgrading and still using the featherweight indoor ammo.
