Airsoft Gun Magazines
These magazines generally connect to the airsoft gun quite similar to the real weapons they are modeled after. The types of airsoft weapon magazines consist of real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags.
Airsoft Weapon Magazine Types
Airsoft gun mags come in a number of kinds like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags. These types usually involve AEG mags. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, simulate the supply of airsoft BBs a genuine weapon would keep in shells, which is generally around 24 to 30 BBs. Mid capability magazines, or mid-caps, enable more airsoft BB storage with capacities about 120 to 160 BBs. High capacity magazines, or high-caps, offer airsoft players the greatest storage with over 200 rounds of BB storage capacity. One thing to take note of about high-cap mags is that airsoft fields usually regulate their use due to players firing too much ammo to spray-and-pray throughout gameplay.
How Airsoft Mags Work
Airsoft mags have a series of internal channels and BB storage zones. The BBs are typically packed into these channels with a spring attached to the very far end. When the BBs are filled, they compress the spring creating tension. On the load end, a small lock holds the BBs in the mag. When a BB is fired, the airsoft gun releases the lock for a split second and loads another BB into the gun out of the mag. GBB, CO2, and HPA guns, which use high pressure air or green gas, will often keep the gas or feed air in through the magazine. This feeds BBs into the guns for these kinds of systems.
Airsoft Rifle Mags
Airsoft rifle magazines are most typically used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some types of sniper rifles. Learn about how airsoft guns 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 mags. The AEG magazines are placed into the weapon’s mag well.
High Capacity LMG Magazine Details
Some airsoft AEGs and squad automatic weapons use very large capacity magazines. They can store up to 1000s of airsoft BBs and provide fire support for a squad or fireteam during fights.
Airsoft SMG Magazines
Airsoft SMG magazines AEG are similarly separated by gun model and usable between different submachine guns (SMGs). These SMG mags usually 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 variations) and weapons powered by high pressure air (HPA) frequently have their own custom style depending on the airsoft weapon brand. These magazines use air and gas to operate so the magazines typically come with builtin gas tanks or pre-tapped for HPA tank hookups. The mags used in GBB weapons store gas in the mag so the rifle cycles every shot and feeds in the next BB. HPA pre-tapped magazines use HPA lines which are connected to the valves and allow the pressurized air to flow in through the mag. This setup feeds the airsoft BBs into the HPA weapon.
Airsoft Pistol Magazines
Airsoft pistol mags are frequently less versatile when compared to the AEG mags used in smgs and rifles. Many airsoft pistol mags store around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
