Info About Airsoft Weapon Mags
Airsoft guns shoot airsoft BBs. These BBs are usually housed in the gun’s mag. These magazines normally attach to the airsoft gun similar to the real weapons they are imitated. The types of airsoft weapon mags consist of real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines.
Airsoft Weapon Magazine Type Details
Airsoft gun mags come in multiple types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, mimic the quantity of airsoft BBs a genuine gun would store, which is generally about 24 to 30 BBs. Mid capability magazines, or mid-caps, permit for more airsoft BB storage with capacities around 120 to 160 BBs.
How Airsoft Mags Work
Airsoft mags have a series of internal channels and BB storage zones. The BBs are usually pushed into these channels with a spring attached to the very far end. When the BBs are packed, they compress the spring developing stress. On the load end, a little latch holds the BBs in the mag. When a BB is fired, the airsoft weapon launches the latch for a split second and loads another BB into the weapon out of the magazine. GBB, CO2, and HPA weapons, which use compressed air or green gas, will typically save the gas or feed air in through the magazine. This feeds BBs into the guns for these types of systems.
Airsoft Rifle Magazines Information
Airsoft rifle mags are frequently used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some types of sniper rifles. The magazines are related to the kind of AEG rifle plus most 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 placed into the gun’s mag well. For instance M4 style AEG magazines would usually work in all M4 design rifles from a short CBQ gun with a 10″ barrel made by KWA to a designated marksman rifle (DMR) platform with a 24″ made by Lancer Tactical or Elite Force. The same cross-compatibility would apply to AK47 AEG magazines with swapability in between different AK rifle platforms. AEG rifle mags can keep between 60 to 200+ airsoft BBs.
Airsoft SMG Magazines Info
Airsoft SMG mags AEG are also separated by gun model and functional in between various submachine guns. These SMG magazines usually 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 mags. Rifle Magazines for Green Gas and HPA Systems Green gas rifles (consisting of GBB versions) and guns powered by high pressure air (HPA) frequently have their own customized design depending on the airsoft gun brand. These mags use air and gas to work so the mags frequently include builtin gas tanks or pre-tapped for HPA tank connections. The magazines used in GBB guns house 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 let the pressurized air to flow in through the magazine. This setup feeds the airsoft BBs into the HPA gun.
Airsoft Pistol Mags
When compared to the AEG magazines used in rifles and SMGs, Airsoft pistol mags are often less versatile. Pistols mags vary by type and frequently use CO2 or green gas (propane) housed in the mag. The mag is placed into the handgun’s grip like the standard gun style. Pistol magazines are often interchangeable in between comparable designs of the exact same airsoft gun manufacturer, but are often not cross-brand suitable unless they are specifically developed for that function. Learning about the specific styles of airsoft sidearms gives you more insight to how their mags function. Most airsoft handgun magazines keep around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
