About Airsoft Weapon Mags
These mags usually attach to the airsoft gun the same as the real weapons they are designed after. The types of airsoft gun magazines consist of real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags.
Info on Airsoft Weapon Mag Types
Airsoft weapon mags come in a number of types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, replicate the quantity of airsoft BBs a genuine gun would house, which is typically about 24 to 30 BBs. Mid capability mags, or mid-caps, allow for more airsoft BB storage with capacities about 120 to 160 BBs.
How Airsoft Mags Work
Airsoft mags have a series of internal channels and BB storage zones. The BBs are generally pushed into these channels with a spring connected to the very far end. When the BBs are filled, they compress the spring producing tension. On the load end, a small latch holds the BBs in the magazine. When a BB is fired, the airsoft weapon releases the lock for a split second and loads another BB into the gun out of the mag. CO2, GBB, and HPA guns, which use high pressure air or green gas, will typically keep the gas or feed air in through the mag. This feeds BBs into the guns for these types of systems.
Information Airsoft Rifle Mags
Airsoft rifle magazines are most typically used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some types of sniper rifles. See how airsoft AEGs shoot BBs. The magazines are particular to the type of AEG rifle and all of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the magazines. The AEG magazines are placed into the gun’s mag well.
About High Capacity LMG Mags
Some airsoft AEGs and squad automatic weapons like M249 Bravo SAWs and M60s use high capacity box magazines. They can store up to 1000s of airsoft BBs and provide fire support for a unit or fireteam.
Details About Airsoft SMG Magazines
Airsoft SMG mags AEG are usually separated by weapon model and functional in between different submachine guns. Hecker and Koch H&K MP5 AEG magazines are made to operate in various MP5s like the MP5K or MP5SD. P90, KRISS Vector, and TMP AEG mags are developed to be cross-compatible. These SMG mags also are available in real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity variations with BB storage capacities varying 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 These mags use air and gas to operate so the magazines frequently come with builtin gas tanks or pre-tapped for HPA tank hookups. The magazines used in GBB guns store gas in the mag so the rifle cycles every shot and feeds in the next BB.
Airsoft Handgun Magazines
When compared to the AEG magazines used in rifles and SMGs, Airsoft pistol magazines are frequently less flexible. Handguns mags vary by type and frequently use CO2 or green gas (propane) held in the magazine. The mag is placed into the pistol’s grip like the basic gun style. Handgun magazines are frequently interchangeable between similar designs of the same airsoft gun producer, but are often not cross-brand suitable unless they are specifically developed for that function. Understanding the specific types of airsoft pistols can give you more insight to how their mags differ. Most airsoft handgun magazines store around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
