Details About Airsoft Gun Magazines
Airsoft guns shoot airsoft BBs. These BBs are typically stored in the gun’s magazine. These mags generally connect to the airsoft gun similar to the genuine weapons they are designed after. The kinds of airsoft gun magazines include real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines.
Airsoft Weapon Mag Types
Airsoft gun mags are manufactured in various kinds like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags. These kinds most often relate to AEG mags. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, mimic the amount of airsoft BBs a real gun would store, which is generally about 24 to 30 BBs. Mid capability magazines, or mid-caps, permit more airsoft BB storage with capacities around 120 to 160 BBs. High capacity magazines, or high-caps, give airsoft players the most storage with over 200 rounds of BB storage capacity. One thing to note about high-cap mags is that airsoft fields frequently restrict their use because they allow players using too much ammunition to spray and pray throughout gameplay.
How Airsoft Mags Work
Airsoft magazines have a series of internal channels and BB storage spots. The BBs are usually loaded into these channels with a spring attached to the very far end. When the BBs are packed, they compress the spring creating tension. On the load end, a little lock holds the BBs in the mag. When a BB is fired, the airsoft gun releases the latch for an instant and loads another BB into the weapon out of the magazine. CO2, GBB, and HPA weapons, which use compressed 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.
Details About Airsoft Rifle Magazines
Airsoft rifle magazines are most often used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some kinds of sniper rifles. The mags are related to the kind of AEG rifle plus all of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the magazines. Learn more about how the inner workings of airsoft guns shoot BBs. The AEG mags are inserted into the gun’s mag insertion area. M4 design AEG mags would normally work in all M4 design rifles from a brief CBQ gun with a 10 inch barrel made by KWA to a designated marksman rifle (DMR) platform with a 24 inch like the guns made by ICS or Tokyo Marui. The exact same would apply to AK47 AEG magazines with swapability in between various AK rifle platforms. AEG rifle mags can hold in between 60 to 200+ airsoft BBs.
Airsoft SMG Mags
Airsoft SMG mags AEG are also separated by gun model and usable in between various submachine guns. These SMG magazines usually come in real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity versions with BB storage capacities varying from around 24 airsoft BBs with real capacity mags to over 200 BBs with high capacity mags. Rifle Magazines for Green Gas and HPA Systems Green gas rifles (including GBB variations) and weapons powered by high pressure air (HPA) often have their own custom-made design depending upon the airsoft gun brand. These mags use air and gas to function so the magazines typically come with builtin gas storage 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 magazines use HPA lines which are connected to the valves and allow the pressurized air to flow in through the magazine. This setup feeds the airsoft BBs into the HPA weapon.
Information on Airsoft Pistol Mags
Airsoft pistol magazines are typically less versatile when compared to the AEG mags used in smgs and rifles. Pistols mags vary by type and frequently use CO2 or green gas (propane) stored in the magazine. The mag is placed into the handgun’s grip like the basic gun design. Handgun mags are frequently interchangeable in between similar models of the very same airsoft gun manufacturer, but are typically not cross-brand compatible unless they are specifically created for that function. Understanding the various types of airsoft sidearms gives you more insight to how their mags work. A lot of airsoft pistol magazines keep around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
