ok well again on my quest to get cheaper caps,, cause im tight, another local toy shop supplied me with another different type, i would say they are 4.5mm similar to the great german yellow ones ive been using all weekend without problems, they come in strips but the powder quality is not as good however and here's the good point,
£0.49 for 72 caps!!!
ive tryed them out and they are not as powerful as the yellow ones and sometimes are only good for semi auto or two round bursts however im cleaning my gun and carts to see if i can get better response.

They sound exactly the same as the ones i got with my very first model gun way back in 1979, a Browning 1910, of which i only have the magazine and brass round left
If i remember correctly, hit with a hammer on concrete they where very loud ! _________________ Too many to list now and the collection has stopped still growing.

Oh - we have those here in Denmark too.
They are OLD SCHOOL
I used to buy them 10-12 years ago for my cap guns. Can be bought from any toystore here.

i just put the other cap boxes in the pic to show that they work with both products, as i know some folk would doubt that they are compatible, but i had not had a stoppage with these yet, am off to pick up the ones i ordered by phone today so will read the leaflet that comes with them and post more info
