Airsoft Gun Mags Info
These magazines usually attach to the airsoft weapon the same as the genuine weapons they are designed after. The types of airsoft weapon magazines consist of real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines.
Airsoft Weapon Mag Types
Airsoft weapon mags come in a number of types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines. Real capacity mags, or real-caps, imitate the quantity of airsoft BBs a real gun would store, which is generally about 24 to 30 BBs. Mid capability mags, or mid-caps, allow for additional airsoft BB storage with capacities about 120 to 160 BBs.
How Airsoft Mags Work
Airsoft magazines have a series of internal channels and BB storage spaces. The BBs are normally packed into these channels with a spring attached to the very far end. When the BBs are loaded, they compress the spring developing tension. On the load end, a small latch holds the BBs in the mag. When a BB is fired, the airsoft gun releases the lock for an instant and loads another BB into the gun out of the mag. GBB, CO2, and HPA guns, which use compressed 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.
