Info About Airsoft Gun Mags
Airsoft guns shoot airsoft BBs. These BBs are generally housed in the gun’s mag. These magazines normally attach to the airsoft weapon very similarly to the genuine weapons they are imitated. 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 are manufactured in various styles like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines. These types frequently relate to AEG mags for automatic electric guns. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, mimic the volume of airsoft BBs a real weapon would keep, which is usually about 24 to 30 airsoft BBs. Mid capability magazines, or mid-caps, allow for more airsoft BB space with capacities around 120 to 160 BBs. High capacity magazines, or high-caps, provide airsoft players the most storage with around 200 rounds of BB storage capacity. One thing to consider about high-cap mags is that airsoft arenas usually prohibit their usage because of players shooting an excessive amount of ammo to spray and pray throughout games.
Information on How Airsoft Mags Work
Airsoft magazines have a series of internal channels and BB storage spots. The BBs are usually loaded into these channels with a spring connected to the extremely far end. When the BBs are packed, they compress the spring developing stress. On the load end, a small latch holds the BBs in the mag. When a BB is fired, the airsoft gun launches the latch for an instant and loads another BB into the gun out of the magazine. HPA, CO2, and GBB weapons, which use high pressure air or green gas, will often store the gas or feed air in through the magazine. This feeds BBs into the guns for these kinds of systems.
Airsoft Rifle Magazines
Airsoft rifle magazines are most often used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some types of sniper rifles. See how airsoft AEGs shoot BBs. The magazines are specific to the type of AEG rifle and all of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the mags. The AEG magazines are placed into the gun’s magazine well.
About High-Cap LMG Mags
Some airsoft AEG guns and squad automatic weapons use very large capacity magazines. They can hold up to 1000s of airsoft BBs and provide massive amounts of suppressive fire for a unit or fireteam during battlefield engagements.
Information on Airsoft SMG Magazines
Airsoft SMG mags AEG are also separated by weapon design and functional in between various submachine guns (SMGs). These SMG magazines usually come in real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity versions with BB storage capacities ranging from around 24 airsoft BBs with real capacity mags to over 200 BBs with high capacity magazines. Rifle Mags for Green Gas and HPA Systems Green gas rifles (including GBB variations) and weapons powered by high pressure air (HPA) frequently have their own customized style depending upon the airsoft gun brand. These mags use air and gas to work so the mags often come with builtin gas reservoirs or pre-tapped for HPA tank connections. The mags used in GBB guns save gas in the magazine 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 permit the pressurized air to stream in through the magazine. This setup feeds the airsoft BBs into the HPA weapon.
About Airsoft Pistol Mags
When compared to the AEG magazines used in smgs and rifles, Airsoft handgun magazines are frequently less versatile. Pistols mags differ by type and typically use CO2 or green gas (propane) held in the mag. The mag is placed into the handgun’s grip like the basic gun design. Handgun mags are often interchangeable between similar designs of the same airsoft weapon maker, but are frequently not cross-brand suitable unless they are particularly developed for that function. Understanding the different styles and types of airsoft sidearms gives you more insight to how their mags work. Most airsoft pistol mags store around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
