Magazine for WE Marui M9 Series Airsoft GBB Gas Blowback Pistols by WE (Color: Black / Green Gas)

"From what I can tell at the day of delivery, this a a very solid CO2 magazine and fits better in my KJW M9A1 Vertec than OEM magazines.

The baseplate is flat and full metal just like the one from a real-steel Beretta or a green gas variant, unlike KJW ones with a fatter plastic baseplate. Even though I like the fat plate because it's easier to reload and slam the magazine in the magwell, the WE one feels more solid and looks cleaner.

The mag slides in extremely well, better than KJW magazines and the finish is harder to scratch. A single magazine reload practice did suffice for KJW mags and magwell to become scratched up but the WE still looks brand new.

The little protrusion in the plastic at the end of the spring is really helpful when reloading since it's easier to grab with gloves and less painfull on naked fingers than KJW.

In terms of performance, I think the gun shot a bit weaker than with OEM magazines. I must say my particular model of M9 is very picky in terms of magazines as OEM mags won't even cycle the gun properly after the second shot, but this WE magazine did better. It shot very solid at first, then started dropping fps as I kept shooting at a BB every 2 seconds. At around half or 2/3 of the mag, the gun wasn't fully cycling every two shot. After reloading, it seemed fixed.

TLDR: Much better finish than KJW mags, has a real-steel look and seems to work ok with a picky handgun. I might buy another one after testing it on the field.

"Is so awesome because of it's realistic look. Doesn't rip us off either.

"Lasts longer and has more power than the mag that came with my gun.
