Airsoft Weapon Magazines
Airsoft guns shoot airsoft BBs. These BBs are typically housed in the gun’s mag. These mags generally connect to the airsoft weapon very similarly to the genuine weapons they are created after. The kinds of airsoft gun magazines include real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines.
Airsoft Weapon Mag Type Details
Airsoft gun magazines are made in various styles like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines. These types frequently involve AEG mags for automatic electric guns. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, simulate the supply of airsoft BBs a genuine gun would keep in shells, which is normally around 24 to 30 airsoft BBs. Mid capability magazines, or mid-caps, allow for more airsoft BB space with capacities about 120 to 160 BBs. High capacity magazines, or high-caps, give airsoft gamers the greatest storage with over 200 rounds of BB storage volume. Something to note about high-cap mags is that airsoft fields usually restrain their use during games due to players using a lot of ammo to spray-and-pray during games.
Information on How Airsoft Mags Work
Airsoft mags 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 producing stress. On the load end, a little latch holds the BBs in the mag. When a BB is fired, the airsoft weapon launches the lock for a split second and loads another BB into the weapon out of the magazine. GBB, HPA, and CO2 guns, which use high pressure air or green gas, will frequently store the gas or feed air in through the magazine. This feeds BBs into the guns for these types of systems.
Airsoft Rifle Mags
Airsoft rifle magazines are frequently used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some kinds of sniper rifles. The magazines are related to the type of AEG rifle and all of the kinds of that rifle are cross-compatible with the mags. Understand how airsoft weapons function. The AEG magazines are placed into the weapon’s magazine well. M4 design AEG magazines would usually work in all M4 style rifles from a short CBQ weapon with a 10″ barrel made by G&G to a designated marksman rifle (DMR) platform with a 24″ barrel. The very same would relate to AK47 AEG magazines with swapability in between different AK rifle platforms. AEG rifle mags can store between 60 to 200+ airsoft BBs.
Airsoft SMG Mags Details
Airsoft SMG mags AEG are similarly separated by weapon model and functional in between various submachine guns. Hecker and Koch H&K MP5 AEG magazines are made to work in various MP5s like the MP5K or MP5SD. P90, KRISS Vector, and TMP AEG magazines are constructed similarly with cross-compatibility. 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 Mags for Green Gas and HPA Systems Green gas rifles (consisting of GBB variations) and guns powered by high pressure air (HPA) frequently have their own custom-made style depending on the airsoft weapon brand. These magazines use air and gas to work so the magazines typically include builtin gas tanks or pre-tapped for HPA tank hookups. The magazines used in GBB weapons keep gas in the mag so the rifle cycles every shot and feeds in the next BB. HPA pre-tapped mags use HPA lines which are attached to the valves and permit the pressurized air to stream in through the magazine. This setup feeds the airsoft BBs into the HPA weapon.
Airsoft Pistol Mags
Airsoft pistol mags are often less versatile when compared to the AEG mags used in smgs and rifles. The majority of airsoft handgun magazines house around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
