Airsoft Weapon Mags Info
These mags typically attach to the airsoft weapon the same as the genuine weapons they are modeled after. The types of airsoft weapon magazines include real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags.
Information on Airsoft Weapon Mag Types
Airsoft gun mags can be found in several types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags. These types usually involve AEG magazines for automatic electric guns. Real capacity mags, or real-caps, mimic the quantity of airsoft BBs a real gun would keep, which is generally around 24 to 30 airsoft BBs. Mid capability mags, or mid-caps, allow for more airsoft BB storage with capacities about 120 to 160 BBs. High capacity mags, or high-caps, offer airsoft gamers the most storage with over 200 rounds of BB storage volume. One point to consider about high-cap mags is that airsoft fields usually prohibit their use because they allow players using too much ammunition to spray-and-pray during gameplay.
Details About How Airsoft Mags Work
Airsoft mags have a series of internal channels and BB storage areas. The BBs are normally loaded into these channels with a spring attached to the extremely far end. When the BBs are filled, they compress the spring developing tension. On the load end, a small lock holds the BBs in the magazine. When a BB is fired, the airsoft gun launches the latch for an instant and loads another BB into the gun out of the magazine. CO2, HPA, and GBB weapons, which use compressed air or green gas, will frequently store the gas or feed air in through the mag. This feeds BBs into the guns for these types of systems.
Airsoft Rifle Mags
Airsoft rifle mags are most frequently used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some types of sniper rifles. Find out how airsoft guns like spring, AEG, and green gas rifles shoot BBs. The magazines are specific to the type of AEG rifle and all of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the mags. The AEG magazines are inserted into the weapon’s magazine well.
Did You Know?
Some airsoft AEGs and squad automatic weapons like M249 Bravo SAWs and M60s use very large capacity magazines. They can store up to 1000s of airsoft BBs and provide massive amounts of suppressive fire for a squad or fireteam.
Airsoft SMG Mags Details
Airsoft SMG magazines AEG are similarly separated by weapon model and functional in between different submachine guns. 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 mags. Rifle Mags for Green Gas and HPA Systems These mags use air and gas to work so the magazines often come with builtin gas reservoirs or pre-tapped for HPA tank hookups. The mags used in GBB guns keep gas in the mag so the rifle cycles every shot and feeds in the next BB.
Airsoft Handgun Mags Information
Airsoft handgun mags are frequently less flexible when compared to the AEG mags used in rifles and SMGs. A lot of airsoft handgun magazines house around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
