About Airsoft Gun Mags
These mags normally attach to the airsoft weapon similar to the real weapons they are modeled after. The types of airsoft weapon mags consist of real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines.
About Airsoft Weapon Magazine Types
Airsoft weapon mags are made in several kinds like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags. These styles most often apply to AEG magazines. Real capacity mags, or real-caps, mimic the volume of airsoft BBs a genuine weapon would keep in shells, which is normally about 24 to 30 airsoft BBs. Mid capability magazines, or mid-caps, enable more airsoft BB space with capacities around 120 to 160 BBs. High capacity magazines, or high-caps, offer airsoft gamers the greatest storage space with around 200 rounds of BB storage volume. One point to consider about high-cap mags is that airsoft fields typically restrict their use during games because they allow players using too much ammunition to spray and pray throughout games.
How Airsoft Magazines Work
Airsoft magazines have a series of internal channels and BB storage locations. The BBs are typically pushed into these channels with a spring connected to the really far end. When the BBs are loaded, they compress the spring developing tension. On the load end, a little lock holds the BBs in the mag. When a BB is fired, the airsoft weapon launches the lock for an instant and loads another BB into the weapon out of the mag. GBB, HPA, and CO2 weapons, which use compressed air or green gas, will often store the gas or feed air in through the magazine. This feeds BBs into the guns for these types of systems.
Info Airsoft Rifle Magazines
Airsoft rifle magazines are usually used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some kinds of sniper rifles. The magazines are relegated to the type of AEG rifle plus most of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the mags. Learn more about how the inner workings of airsoft guns shoot BBs. The AEG mags are inserted into the weapon’s mag well. For example M4 design AEG mags would generally work in all M4 style rifles from a short CBQ weapon with a 10″ barrel made by G and G to a designated marksman rifle (DMR) platform with a 24″ barrel. The same would apply to AK47 AEG magazines with swapability in between different AK rifle platforms. AEG rifle mags can keep in between 60 to 200+ airsoft BBs.
Airsoft SMG Mags Details
Airsoft SMG mags AEG are similarly separated by gun design and functional in between various submachine guns. Hecker and Koch H&K MP5 AEG magazines are made to operate in different MP5s like the MP5K or MP5SD. P90, KRISS Vector, and TMP AEG magazines are built similarly with cross-compatibility. These SMG magazines also come in real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity variations with BB storage capacities varying 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 variations) and weapons powered by high pressure air (HPA) often have their own custom style depending on the airsoft gun brand. These mags use air and gas to function so the magazines frequently feature builtin gas storage areas or pre-tapped for HPA tank hookups. 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 enable the pressurized air to flow in through the magazine. This setup feeds the airsoft BBs into the HPA weapon.
About Airsoft Handgun Mags
Airsoft handgun mags are typically less flexible when compared to the AEG magazines used in rifles and SMGs. Most airsoft pistol mags hold around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
