Airsoft Magazines: Different Features for Different Needs

By Lynda-Ross Vega


From round, drum style magazines to the longer, more vicious looking styles, Airsoft magazines often have a number of features that may make them easier or even more fun to use. However, some of these same features may change the safety aspects of these items and should be carefully considered. Not only should you read all of the fine print about each feature included, you should also consider the age of the person that is going to be using the equipment.

Does Size or Shape Matter When Choosing Airsoft Magazines?

The first features you need to decide on are the size and shape of the magazine you'll be using. While it might not seem like a really important factor, shape can play an important role in how the magazine is used and how well it fits the Airsoft gamer's needs. For instance, the rounded drum type of magazine can be slightly bulky and may make certain moves a little more difficult. The way that they are loaded may make these noisier than the other types as well.

The size of the magazines can also impact on how much ammunition they can hold - which means that you don't have to spend as much time stopping to reload. If you are going to be playing Airsoft games all day long, then finding a suitable option that holds the maximum number of BB or pellets may no doubt be the key.

Other Features that Might Be Considered for Your Airsoft Magazine.

Another feature that might be considered to be good include - whether they are auto winding (automatic) or manual winding. There are some that have various other settings, which can include sound activation, manual activation and rapid fire activation. For safety, a beginner should generally not be using fully automatic or battery operated magazines until they learn how to better control their triggering.

The more features that an Airsoft magazine has, the more potential there is for an accident or malfunction of some kind. Remember, one of the most common issues with automatic magazines is jamming. Some are easier to unjam than others.

In addition to ease of operation, there are many other considerations. For instance, if you are playing a game where stealth is a major factor, you want to have an Airsoft magazine that is quiet, not one that is going to give you away with a lot of rattling sounds.
