Info About Airsoft Gun Magazines
These magazines normally attach to the airsoft weapon the same as the genuine weapons they are modeled after. The types of airsoft weapon mags include real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags.
Airsoft Weapon Mag Types
Airsoft weapon magazines come in a few types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, replicate the amount of airsoft BBs a genuine gun would hold, which is usually about 24 to 30 BBs. Mid capability magazines, or mid-caps, enable for additional airsoft BB storage with capacities around 120 to 160 BBs.
How Airsoft Mags Work
Airsoft magazines have a series of internal channels and BB storage areas. The BBs are normally packed into these channels with a spring attached to the really far end. When the BBs are filled, 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 releases the latch for an instant and loads another BB into the gun out of the mag. CO2, GBB, and HPA weapons, which use compressed air or green gas, will typically keep the gas or feed air in through the magazine. This feeds BBs into the guns for these kinds of systems.
Airsoft Rifle Mags
Airsoft rifle mags are usually used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some types of sniper rifles. The magazines are directly related to the kind of AEG rifle plus all of the kinds of that rifle are cross-compatible with the magazines. See how the inner workings of airsoft guns shoot BBs. The AEG magazines are inserted into the weapon’s mag insertion area. M4 style AEG mags would usually work in all M4 style rifles from a short CBQ weapon with a 10 inch barrel made by G and G to a designated marksman rifle (DMR) platform with a 24″ like the guns made by ICS or Tokyo Marui. The same cross-compatibility would relate to AK47 AEG mags with swapability in between various AK rifle platforms. AEG rifle mags can keep in between 60 to 200+ airsoft BBs.
Details About Airsoft SMG Mags
Airsoft SMG magazines AEG are similarly separated by gun design and functional between various submachine guns. These SMG magazines also come in real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity variations 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 Green gas rifles (consisting of GBB versions) and weapons powered by high pressure air (HPA) frequently have their own custom-made design depending upon the airsoft gun brand. These magazines use air and gas to function so the magazines typically include builtin gas storage or pre-tapped for HPA tank hookups. The magazines used in GBB guns accumulate 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 allow the pressurized air to flow in through the magazine. This setup feeds the airsoft BBs into the HPA gun.
Info on Airsoft Handgun Magazines
Airsoft pistol magazines are typically less flexible when compared to the AEG magazines used in rifles and SMGs. Pistols mags differ by type and frequently use CO2 or green gas (propane) kept in the mag. The magazine is placed into the handgun’s grip like the standard gun design. Pistol magazines are often interchangeable between similar designs of the same airsoft gun maker, however are frequently not cross-brand compatible unless they are specifically developed for that function. Understanding the specific styles of airsoft pistols can give you a better understanding of how their magazines work. Many airsoft pistol magazines store around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
