Airsoft Weapon Magazines Details
Airsoft guns shoot airsoft BBs. These BBs are usually held in the gun’s mag. These mags generally connect to the airsoft gun similar to the real weapons they are imitated. The types of airsoft weapon mags consist of real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags.
Airsoft Weapon Magazine Types
Airsoft gun mags come in a number of types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, replicate the quantity of airsoft BBs a real gun would house, which is typically about 24 to 30 BBs. Mid capability magazines, or mid-caps, enable for more airsoft BB storage with capacities about 120 to 160 BBs.
Details About How Airsoft Magazines Work
Airsoft mags have a series of internal channels and BB storage zones. The BBs are normally pushed into these channels with a spring attached to the really far end. When the BBs are loaded, they compress the spring developing stress. On the load end, a small lock holds the BBs in the magazine. When a BB is fired, the airsoft weapon releases the latch for a fraction of a second and loads another BB into the gun out of the mag. GBB, CO2, and HPA weapons, which use high pressure air or green gas, will often save the gas or feed air in through the mag. This feeds BBs into the guns for these types of systems.
Airsoft Rifle Mags
Airsoft rifle mags are usually used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some types of sniper rifles. The mags are relegated to the type of AEG rifle plus all of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the mags. See how airsoft guns work. The AEG mags are inserted into the weapon’s mag insertion area. M4 design AEG mags would usually work in all M4 design rifles from a brief CBQ gun with a 10 inch barrel made by G and G to a designated marksman rifle (DMR) platform with a 24 inch barrel. The same cross-compatibility would apply to AK47 AEG magazines with swapability between different AK rifle platforms. AEG rifle magazines can hold between 60 to 200+ airsoft BBs.
Airsoft SMG Magazines Details
Airsoft SMG mags AEG are also separated by weapon design and functional in between various submachine guns. Hecker and Koch H&K MP5 AEG magazines are made to operate in different MP5s like the MP5K or MP5SD. P90, KRISS Vector, and TMP AEG mags are developed similarly with cross-compatibility. These SMG mags also come in real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity variations with BB storage capacities ranging from around 24 airsoft BBs with real capacity mags to over 200 BBs with high capacity mags. Rifle Mags for Green Gas and HPA Systems Green gas rifles (including GBB versions) and weapons powered by high pressure air (HPA) frequently have their own custom-made style depending on the airsoft gun brand. These mags use air and gas to work so the mags frequently feature builtin gas tanks or are pre-tapped for HPA tank connections. The magazines used in GBB guns accumulate gas in the mag so the rifle cycles every shot and feeds in the next BB. HPA pre-tapped mags use HPA lines which are linked to the valves and help the pressurized air to stream in through the magazine. This setup feeds the airsoft BBs into the HPA gun.
Airsoft Handgun Magazines
Airsoft handgun mags are typically less versatile when compared to the AEG mags used in smgs and rifles. Most airsoft handgun magazines store around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
