Information About Airsoft Gun Magazines
These magazines normally connect to the airsoft weapon comparable to the real weapons they are designed after. The types of airsoft gun mags consist of real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags.
Airsoft Weapon Magazine Types
Airsoft weapon mags come in several types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, replicate the amount of airsoft BBs a real weapon would house, which is normally about 24 to 30 BBs. Mid capability mags, or mid-caps, enable for more airsoft BB storage with capacities around 120 to 160 BBs.
Airsoft Magazine Functionality Details
Airsoft magazines have a series of internal channels and BB storage locations. The BBs are normally loaded into these channels with a spring attached to the very far end. When the BBs are loaded, they compress the spring producing stress. On the load end, a small lock holds the BBs in the mag. When a BB is fired, the airsoft weapon launches the lock for a fraction of a second and loads another BB into the weapon out of the magazine. HPA, CO2, and GBB weapons, which use high pressure air or green gas, will typically save the gas or feed air in through the mag. This feeds BBs into the guns for these kinds of systems.
Airsoft Rifle Magazines
Airsoft rifle mags are usually used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some types of sniper rifles. The mags are directly related to the type of AEG rifle plus most of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the magazines. Understand how the inner workings of airsoft weapons shoot BBs. The AEG magazines are inserted into the weapon’s magazine well. M4 design AEG mags would generally work in all M4 design rifles from a short CBQ weapon with a 10 inch barrel made by G&G to a designated marksman rifle (DMR) platform with a 24 inch like the guns made by ICS or Tokyo Marui. The same cross-compatibility would relate to AK47 AEG mags with swapability between various AK rifle platforms. AEG rifle mags can hold in between 60 to 200+ airsoft BBs.
Airsoft SMG Mags Details
Airsoft SMG magazines AEG are also separated by gun design and functional between different submachine guns. Hecker and Koch H&K MP5 AEG mags are made to operate in different MP5s like the MP5K or MP5SD. P90, KRISS Vector, and TMP AEG magazines are constructed to be cross-compatible. These SMG magazines 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 Magazines for Green Gas and HPA Systems These mags use air and gas to operate so the magazines typically come with builtin gas reservoirs or pre-tapped for HPA tank hookups. The mags used in GBB guns keep gas in the magazine so the rifle cycles every shot and feeds in the next BB.
Info on Airsoft Pistol Magazines
Airsoft pistol mags are often less versatile when compared to the AEG mags used in smgs and rifles. Pistols mags vary by type and often use CO2 or green gas (propane) kept in the mag. The magazine is inserted into the pistol’s grip like the standard gun style. Pistol mags are typically interchangeable between comparable designs of the very same airsoft gun producer, but are frequently not cross-brand compatible unless they are particularly developed for that function. Understanding the various types of airsoft sidearms gives you a better understanding of how their mags work. The majority of airsoft pistol magazines store around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
