Spare mag prices


Recommended Posts

I have paid out for both Rapid and FX Impact spare mags which are quite a price and thought at the time why Weihrauch have managed to keep their mag prices at a sensible level, well it is quite a time since I bought any mags for HW rifles and got a bit of a surprise when I asked for prices for my HW110k spare mags......................nearly £40 each.

Well I may live in Lincolnshire, but the Yorkshire blood in me started to froth up, £40 for an HW mag, no bloody way so started looking on flea bay to see what came up. After a while of looking for some s/h mags to no avail, I did wonder about these ballistic nylon mags for sale and at a few pence under £13 each. Sod it, I decided to try them as there were good comments being said about them so for £23.95 for two, I placed my order. 

Now at this price I thought it was worth a gamble and as there were no moving parts to the mag it seemed to be a safe bet providing the pellets fitted in and the fit into the gun was okay. I have been using them for the last few weeks with no issue at all so if you need either HW100 or 110/44 pistol mags, you could do worse than these.

I would stick with the traditional metal magazines as comes with these guns.

            My HW 100 KT .177 has seen a shed load of work over the last 6 years on the same magazine :yes:.

            My 100 ( bought new ) came with two magazines, of which i have only ever used one of them and never, ever a problem.

            I`m a Lancashire lad, far superior to Yorkshire lads, - just pay the £40 quid !  :feck::laugh:  x

Well, tried the mags and the jsb heavy 4.52 and Polymags are loose in the magazine, the mags  fit the mag-well nice and snug they rotate and work with no problem but I think the holes where the pellet seats are a tad to big and as the skirt of the pellets are loose and the o-ring I don't think is sitting low enough, I can shake the pellets out, I tried the o-ring from the old mag but same problem, the recess where the o-ring sits I think is a tad to  Shallow, so might have to see if I can make the recess a little deeper as the jsb heavies are very accurate and don't want to start changing pellets....
