Cyma 128 Hi Capa Mags

[Point Two Balls]

 

Hi Guys,

 

Does anyone know if any other mags will fit the Cyma 128 hi-capa other than the specific one?

 

Patrol base sell one that fits the 122, 123, 126 and 128, but no one has any stock.

 

Plenty of mags about for the 122, but not sure if they are the same length as the one that came with the 128.

 

Or maybe they all use the same mag and the hi-capa just has more lateral room for BB's.

 

The grip just looks longer on the 128 than the other guns, hence why I don't think the mags are the same length.

 

Unless anyone has a 122, 123 or 126 and can measure the length of a mag.

 

Cheers,

 

Pat.

CM.123 magazine, freshly measured.

That is awesome - thanks @Rogerborg.

 

Will measure up my 128 tomorrow and report back.

 

Might help someone else in the future.

No problem, I have a passion for measuring things.  It's not weird, it's eccentric.

Me too.....

 

All the measurements from the 128 mag are the same as the 123 mag apart from the overall length and the lower section (your 76mm section).

 

The 128 hi-cap mag is 146mm long and the lower section 93mm long on the hi-cap 128 mag.

 

Good to know, but looks like only the specific 128 hi-cap mag will fit the 128, but the 128 hi-cap mag will fit all the non hi-cap guns all be it with 16mm poking out of the bottom of the grip.

 

Cheers,

 

Pat.

Good to know.  You might be able to poke a CM.123/127 mag up inside the magwell and have it secure, that's why I measured to the detent.

 

Sadly, you won't be able to use the extended "100" (more like 60) round mags, which is a pity as they cost about the same as the ~30 round metal ones and are a lot harder to lose.

@Rogerborg- interesting observation today......

 

The motor end cap is held on with two push pins and is 16mm long.

 

Pretty sure a normal mag will fit straight in there as well as the extended mag.

 

Wonder if there's a cover plate for the 128 to convert it to a low-cap that's held in with two pins - would make buying a spare mag a lot easier.

Hmm, that might even be DIY-able.  Thick kydex, EVA foam, heck, it's just cosmetic so slap some duct tape over the motor.
