Airsoft Weapon Mags Information
Airsoft weapons shoot airsoft BBs. These BBs are generally kept in the gun’s magazine. These mags usually attach to the airsoft gun similar to the real weapons they are imitated. The kinds of airsoft gun magazines include real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines.
Airsoft Gun Magazine Types
Airsoft gun mags come in several different kinds like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines. These kinds frequently apply to AEG mags. Real capacity mags, or real-caps, mimic the total of airsoft BBs a genuine gun would keep, which is generally about 24 to 30 airsoft BBs. Mid capability mags, or mid-caps, allow for more airsoft BB storage with capacities about 120 to 160 BBs. High capacity mags, or high-caps, provide airsoft gamers the greatest storage space with over 200 rounds of BB storage capacity. One point to take note of about high-cap mags is that airsoft fields commonly limit their use during games because of players firing way too much ammunition to spray and pray throughout games.
Info on How Airsoft Magazines Work
Airsoft mags have a series of internal channels and BB storage zones. The BBs are normally packed into these channels with a spring connected to the extremely far end. When the BBs are filled, they compress the spring developing stress. On the load end, a small latch holds the BBs in the magazine. When a BB is fired, the airsoft gun launches the latch for a fraction of a second and loads another BB into the gun out of the magazine. HPA, CO2, and GBB weapons, 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.
Information Airsoft Rifle Magazines
Airsoft rifle mags are most often used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some types of sniper rifles. See how airsoft AEGs shoot BBs. The mags are particular to the type of AEG rifle and all of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the mags. The AEG mags are inserted into the weapon’s magazine well.
About High-Cap LMG Mags
Some airsoft AEG guns and squad automatic weapons like SAWs use high-cap drum magazines. They can hold up to thousands of airsoft BBs and provide fire support for a squad or fireteam.
Airsoft SMG Mags
Airsoft SMG mags AEG are similarly separated by weapon model and functional in between different submachine guns (SMGs). These SMG mags usually come in real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity variations with BB storage capacities varying 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 versions) and guns powered by high pressure air (HPA) typically have their own customized design depending on the airsoft weapon brand. These mags use air and gas to operate so the mags often include builtin gas storage areas or pre-tapped for HPA tank connections. The magazines used in GBB weapons save 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 linked to the valves and let the pressurized air to stream in through the mag. This setup feeds the airsoft BBs into the HPA gun.
Information on Airsoft Pistol Mags
When compared to the AEG magazines used in rifles and SMGs, Airsoft handgun magazines are often less flexible. Pistols mags differ by type and often use CO2 or green gas (propane) held in the magazine. The magazine is placed into the handgun’s grip like the basic firearm style. Pistol magazines are often interchangeable between similar models of the very same airsoft weapon manufacturer, but are typically not cross-brand suitable unless they are particularly created for that function. Understanding the specific styles and types of airsoft sidearms can give you more insight to how their pistol mags function. The majority of airsoft handgun mags keep around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
