Airsoft Weapon Mags
Airsoft weapons shoot airsoft BBs. These BBs are generally held in the gun’s magazine. These magazines generally attach to the airsoft gun similar to the real weapons they are imitated. The types of airsoft weapon mags include real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines.
Airsoft Gun Mag Types
Airsoft gun magazines come in multiple types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, replicate the amount of airsoft BBs a genuine weapon would house, which is generally about 24 to 30 BBs. Mid capability magazines, or mid-caps, allow for additional airsoft BB storage with capacities about 120 to 160 BBs.
Information on How Airsoft Magazines Work
Airsoft magazines have a series of internal channels and BB storage spaces. The BBs are typically loaded into these channels with a spring connected to the really far end. When the BBs are filled, they compress the spring producing stress. 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 fraction of a second and loads another BB into the weapon out of the magazine. CO2, GBB, and HPA guns, which use high pressure air or green gas, will typically store the gas or feed air in through the mag. This feeds BBs into the guns for these kinds of systems.
About Airsoft Rifle Magazines
Airsoft rifle mags are most often used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some kinds of sniper rifles. The magazines are relegated to the kind of AEG rifle plus most of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the mags. Learn more about how airsoft weapons work. The AEG magazines are placed into the gun’s magazine well. For example M4 design AEG magazines would normally operate in all M4 style rifles from a short CBQ gun with a 10″ barrel made by KWA to a designated marksman rifle (DMR) platform with a 24 inch made by Lancer Tactical or Elite Force. The same would relate to AK47 AEG magazines with swapability between different AK rifle platforms. AEG rifle mags can hold between 60 to 200+ airsoft BBs.
Info on Airsoft SMG Magazines
Airsoft SMG magazines AEG are similarly separated by weapon design and functional between various submachine guns. Hecker and Koch H&K MP5 AEG mags are made to operate in various MP5s like the MP5K or MP5SD. P90, KRISS Vector, and TMP AEG magazines are usually built to be compatible. These SMG mags also 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 Magazines for Green Gas and HPA Systems These magazines use air and gas to work so the mags typically come with builtin gas reservoirs or pre-tapped for HPA tank connections. The magazines used in GBB guns save gas in the magazine so the rifle cycles every shot and feeds in the next BB.
Airsoft Handgun Mags Details
When compared to the AEG mags used in rifles and SMGs, Airsoft handgun magazines are often less flexible. Pistols mags vary by type and typically use CO2 or green gas (propane) housed in the magazine. The mag is inserted into the handgun’s grip like the basic firearm style. Pistol magazines are frequently interchangeable between similar designs of the very same airsoft gun maker, however are often not cross-brand compatible unless they are specifically designed for that purpose. Understanding the different types of airsoft sidearms gives you a better understanding of how their mags differ. The majority of airsoft pistol mags keep around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
