Airsoft Gun Mags Information
Airsoft guns shoot airsoft BBs. These BBs are generally kept in the gun’s mag. These magazines normally connect to the airsoft weapon very similarly to the real weapons they are imitated. The types of airsoft gun magazines consist of real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines.
Airsoft Weapon Magazine Type Details
Airsoft gun magazines are made in multiple types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines. These kinds most often involve AEG magazines. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, simulate the amount of airsoft BBs a real weapon would hold in ammunition, which is usually around 24 to 30 airsoft BBs. Mid capability mags, or mid-caps, allow for more airsoft BB space with capacities around 120 to 160 BBs. High capacity mags, or high-caps, give airsoft players the most storage with around 200 rounds of BB storage volume. One point to note about high-cap mags is that airsoft arenas frequently prohibit their use during games because of players using too much ammunition to spray and pray throughout gameplay.
Information on How Airsoft Mags Work
Airsoft mags have a series of internal channels and BB storage areas. When a BB is fired, the airsoft weapon releases the lock for a split second and loads another BB into the gun out of the magazine. GBB, HPA, and CO2 guns, which use high pressure air or green gas, will typically house the gas or feed air in through the magazine.
Information Airsoft Rifle Magazines
Airsoft rifle magazines are most often used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some types of sniper rifles. Find out how airsoft guns shoot BBs. The mags are specific to the type of AEG rifle and all of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the magazines. The AEG magazines are inserted into the weapon’s magazine well.
High Capacity LMG Mag Facts
Some airsoft AEGs and squad automatic weapons like SAWs use very large capacity magazines. They can hold up to thousands of BBs and provide massive amounts of suppressive fire for a squad or fireteam during battlefield engagements.
Information on Airsoft SMG Mags
Airsoft SMG mags AEG are also separated by weapon model and functional between different submachine guns. These SMG mags 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 Mags for Green Gas and HPA Systems Green gas rifles (including GBB versions) and weapons powered by high pressure air (HPA) frequently have their own custom-made design depending on the airsoft gun brand. These magazines use air and gas to operate so the mags typically include builtin gas storage areas or pre-tapped for HPA tank connections. The mags used in GBB weapons 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 allow the pressurized air to stream in through the magazine. This setup feeds the airsoft BBs into the HPA gun.
About Airsoft Pistol Mags
Airsoft pistol mags are often less flexible when compared to the AEG mags used in rifles and SMGs. Handguns mags differ by type and frequently use CO2 or green gas (propane) kept in the magazine. The magazine is inserted into the handgun’s grip like the basic firearm design. Pistol magazines are typically interchangeable in between similar designs of the very same airsoft weapon producer, however are typically not cross-brand compatible unless they are particularly developed for that function. Understanding the various styles and types of airsoft handguns can give you more insight to how their pistol mags function. Many airsoft handgun mags store around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
