Airsoft Weapon Magazines Info
Airsoft weapons shoot airsoft BBs. These BBs are typically held in the weapon’s magazine. These magazines typically connect to the airsoft gun very similarly to the genuine weapons they are imitated. The types of airsoft weapon magazines consist of real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags.
Information on Airsoft Gun Mag Types
Airsoft gun magazines are manufactured in a number of types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines. These styles most often involve AEG magazines for automatic electric guns. Real capacity mags, or real-caps, simulate the volume of airsoft BBs a genuine weapon would store in bullets, which is typically around 24 to 30 airsoft BBs. Mid capability mags, or mid-caps, allow for more airsoft BB space with capacities about 120 to 160 BBs. High capacity magazines, or high-caps, offer airsoft gamers the greatest storage with around 200 rounds of BB storage capacity. One point to consider about high-cap mags is that airsoft fields commonly prohibit their usage because they allow players shooting excessive amounts of ammo to spray and pray during gameplay.
About How Airsoft Mags Work
Airsoft magazines have a series of internal channels and BB storage locations. When a BB is fired, the airsoft weapon releases the lock for a fraction of a second and loads another BB into the weapon out of the magazine. HPA, GBB, and CO2 guns, which use high pressure air or green gas, will frequently house the gas or feed air in through the mag.
Airsoft Rifle Magazines Details
Airsoft rifle magazines are most often used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some types of sniper rifles. The magazines are relegated to the kind of AEG rifle and all of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the mags. Learn more about how airsoft guns work. The AEG mags are placed into the gun’s magazine insertion area. M4 design AEG mags would normally work in all M4 design rifles from a brief CBQ weapon with a 10″ barrel made by KWA to a designated marksman rifle (DMR) platform with a 24 inch like the guns made by ICS or Tokyo Marui. The same would apply to AK47 AEG magazines with swapability in between various AK rifle platforms. AEG rifle mags can hold in between 60 to 200+ airsoft BBs.
Airsoft SMG Magazines
Airsoft SMG magazines AEG are similarly separated by gun model and functional between different submachine guns. 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 magazines. Rifle Magazines for Green Gas and HPA Systems Green gas rifles (consisting of GBB variations) and weapons powered by high pressure air (HPA) typically have their own customized design depending on the airsoft gun brand. These magazines use air and gas to operate so the magazines frequently include builtin gas storage areas or are pre-tapped for HPA tank hookups. The magazines used in GBB guns keep 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 hooked up to the valves and enable the pressurized air to flow in through the mag. This setup feeds the airsoft BBs into the HPA weapon.
Airsoft Pistol Magazines Information
Airsoft handgun mags are often less flexible when compared to the AEG magazines used in rifles and SMGs. Pistols mags differ by type and often use CO2 or green gas (propane) stored in the magazine. The mag is inserted into the pistol’s grip like the standard firearm design. Pistol mags are often interchangeable in between similar models of the exact same airsoft gun manufacturer, however are typically not cross-brand suitable unless they are particularly designed for that function. Understanding the specific styles of airsoft pistols gives you more insight to how their pistol mags work. Many airsoft handgun magazines store around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
