Details About Airsoft Gun Mags
These magazines typically attach to the airsoft weapon the same as the genuine weapons they are modeled after. The types of airsoft weapon mags consist of real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags.
Airsoft Weapon Magazine Type Info
Airsoft weapon mags are made in several types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines. These kinds frequently involve AEG magazines for automatic electric guns. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, simulate the quantity of airsoft BBs a real gun would hold in ammunition, which is typically around 24 to 30 BBs. Mid capability magazines, or mid-caps, permit more airsoft BB space with capacities about 120 to 160 BBs. High capacity mags, or high-caps, provide airsoft gamers the greatest storage with over 200 rounds of BB storage volume. One thing to consider about high-cap mags is that airsoft fields usually limit their use because they allow players using too much ammo to spray-and-pray throughout games.
How Airsoft Mags Work
Airsoft magazines have a series of internal channels and BB storage zones. The BBs are typically filled into these channels with a spring attached to the extremely far end. When the BBs are filled, they compress the spring creating stress. On the load end, a small latch holds the BBs in the mag. When a BB is fired, the airsoft weapon releases the latch for a fraction of a second and loads another BB into the weapon out of the mag. GBB, CO2, and HPA guns, which use high pressure air or green gas, will often store the gas or feed air in through the mag. This feeds BBs into the guns for these kinds of systems.
About Airsoft Rifle Mags
Airsoft rifle magazines are usually 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 kinds of that rifle are cross-compatible with the mags. Understand how airsoft guns function. The AEG mags are inserted into the weapon’s magazine well. For example M4 design AEG magazines would generally operate in all M4 style rifles from a brief CBQ gun with a 10″ barrel made by KWA to a designated marksman rifle (DMR) platform with a 24″ barrel. The exact same cross-compatibility would relate to AK47 AEG magazines with swapability between different AK rifle platforms. AEG rifle mags can store between 60 to 200+ airsoft BBs.
Airsoft SMG Mags Information
Airsoft SMG magazines AEG are similarly separated by weapon design and functional between various 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 magazines are developed similarly. These SMG magazines also can be found 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 These magazines use air and gas to function so the magazines typically come with builtin gas tanks or pre-tapped for HPA tank connections. The mags used in GBB weapons store gas in the mag so the rifle cycles every shot and feeds in the next BB.
Airsoft Pistol Mags Information
Airsoft handgun magazines are often less flexible when compared to the AEG magazines used in smgs and rifles. Many airsoft pistol mags store around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
