Information About Airsoft Gun Mags
These mags usually connect to the airsoft gun quite similar to the genuine weapons they are modeled after. The types of airsoft gun magazines include real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags.
Airsoft Gun Mag Type Details
Airsoft gun magazines come in a few types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, simulate the amount of airsoft BBs a real gun would house, which is usually about 24 to 30 BBs. Mid capability magazines, or mid-caps, enable for more airsoft BB storage with capacities about 120 to 160 BBs.
How Airsoft Magazines Work
Airsoft magazines have a series of internal channels and BB storage locations. The BBs are generally loaded into these channels with a spring connected to the extremely far end. When the BBs are packed, they compress the spring creating tension. On the load end, a small latch holds the BBs in the magazine. When a BB is fired, the airsoft gun releases the lock for a split second and loads another BB into the gun out of the magazine. HPA, GBB, and CO2 guns, which use high pressure air or green gas, will typically store the gas or feed air in through the magazine. This feeds BBs into the guns for these kinds of systems.
Airsoft Rifle Magazines
Airsoft rifle mags are frequently used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some kinds of sniper rifles. The mags are specific to the type of AEG rifle plus all of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the magazines. Learn more about how airsoft weapons work. The AEG magazines are inserted into the gun’s mag insertion area. M4 design AEG mags would typically work in all M4 design rifles from a brief CBQ gun with a 10″ barrel made by KWA to a designated marksman rifle (DMR) platform with a 24″ barrel. The very same would relate to AK47 AEG magazines with swapability in between different AK rifle platforms. AEG rifle magazines can store between 60 to 200+ airsoft BBs.
Information on Airsoft SMG Magazines
Airsoft SMG mags AEG are also separated by weapon design and functional in between different submachine guns. Hecker and Koch H&K MP5 AEG magazines are made to work in different MP5s like the MP5K or MP5SD. P90, KRISS Vector, and TMP AEG mags are developed similarly with cross-compatibility. These SMG mags also can be found 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 Green gas rifles (including GBB variations) and weapons powered by high pressure air (HPA) often have their own custom-made style depending upon the airsoft weapon brand. These mags use air and gas to work so the mags often include builtin gas storage areas or pre-tapped for HPA tank connections. The mags used in GBB guns save gas in the magazine so the rifle cycles every shot and feeds in the next BB. HPA pre-tapped magazines use HPA lines which are connected to the valves and help the pressurized air to flow in through the magazine. This setup feeds the airsoft BBs into the HPA weapon.
Airsoft Pistol Mags Info
Airsoft pistol magazines are often less flexible when compared to the AEG magazines used in rifles and SMGs. Pistols mags vary by type and frequently use CO2 or green gas (propane) held in the mag. The magazine is inserted into the pistol’s grip like the standard firearm design. Pistol magazines are frequently interchangeable between similar models of the same airsoft weapon producer, however are typically not cross-brand compatible unless they are specifically designed for that function. Understanding the various types of airsoft pistols can give you a better understanding of how their mags function. Many airsoft handgun mags keep around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
