About Airsoft Gun Mags
Airsoft weapons shoot airsoft BBs. These BBs are normally stored in the weapon’s magazine. These mags typically connect to the airsoft gun similar to the real weapons they are imitated. The types of airsoft gun mags consist of real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity magazines.
About Airsoft Gun Magazine Types
Airsoft weapon mags come in multiple types like real capacity, mid capacity, and high capacity mags. Real capacity magazines, or real-caps, simulate the amount of airsoft BBs a real weapon would hold, 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.
Information on How Airsoft Magazines Work
Airsoft magazines have a series of internal channels and BB storage spots. The BBs are generally filled into these channels with a spring connected to the very far end. When the BBs are loaded, they compress the spring creating stress. On the load end, a little latch holds the BBs in the mag. When a BB is fired, the airsoft gun launches the lock for a fraction of a 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 store the gas or feed air in through the mag. This feeds BBs into the guns for these types of systems.
Information Airsoft Rifle Mags
Airsoft rifle magazines are usually used in automatic electric guns (AEGs) and some kinds of sniper rifles. The magazines are specific to the kind of AEG rifle and most of the types of that rifle are cross-compatible with the magazines. Learn more about how the inner workings of airsoft weapons shoot BBs. The AEG magazines are inserted into the gun’s magazine well. M4 style AEG mags would generally work in all M4 design 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 inch like the guns made by ICS or Tokyo Marui. The exact same cross-compatibility would relate to AK47 AEG magazines with swapability between different AK rifle platforms. AEG rifle mags can hold in between 60 to 200+ airsoft BBs.
Airsoft SMG Magazines
Airsoft SMG mags AEG are similarly separated by gun design and usable in between various 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 magazines. Rifle Magazines for Green Gas and HPA Systems These mags use air and gas to work so the mags often come with builtin gas tanks or pre-tapped for HPA tank connections. The magazines used in GBB weapons save gas in the mag so the rifle cycles every shot and feeds in the next BB.
Airsoft Handgun Magazines
Airsoft pistol mags are frequently less versatile when compared to the AEG magazines used in smgs and rifles. Handguns mags differ by type and frequently use CO2 or green gas (propane) housed in the magazine. The mag is placed into the handgun’s grip like the standard gun style. Pistol magazines are frequently interchangeable in between similar models of the exact same airsoft weapon producer, but are typically not cross-brand suitable unless they are particularly designed for that purpose. Learning about the specific styles and types of airsoft sidearms gives you more insight to how their magazines function. The majority of airsoft pistol mags save around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs.
