TM p226 Mags

[davidf]

Hi all,

 

Trying to find new mags for my TM P226. 

 

The only ones I spotted at my local were the e2 version. Didn't fit. 

 

If someone can help me in the right direction for the ones I need that match my leaking one that would be great

When you say they didn't fit, what was wrong with them exactly?

 

I used to have an old 226, and didn't have any issues using the old or E2 mags.

The shape of them must have been different as they were very tight in the magwell and also didn't go all the way in. In addition the gas release value sat at a complete different height.

Sadly I have taken them back now so didn't get a side by side comparison. The chap at the shop said I need the other one not the E2. But couldn't guide me any further

Are you sure they gave you marui ones?

 

The rear of that magazine looks different to the ones I remember having; there was no detail or markings one them, from what I recall.

 

What store did you go to?

The one in your picture looks more like a KWA one, without having it to hand:

Yeah, I have a TM p226e2 and my mags don't look like yours. The TM ones don't have pins in the bottom, they have a screw in the baseplate (far better design, why did they go back to pins in their newer pistols?!), and the TM ones say "made in Japan" on one side. I don't know if the e2 mags work in the older p226, but I do know the mags you have aren't TM ones

Can you post up some photos of your 226?

 

Both sides, and also ones with the top & bottom separated, and of the hop & barrel unit.

Literally doing that as you sent the message through 

I got this on here from a seller saying its TM. So i just assumed it is/was

Hope this helps

I don't think that is a TM.

 

TM would say ASGK and Tokyo Marui on it somewhere.

 

I think it might be a Kwa, which would explain the mags!

 

How does the hop up adjust on yours?

No idea mate. The mag it came with "its air tight" . Leaked immediately. Soo haven't been able to field it. Only just found the time to look back into it now 

 

After looking at the KWA mags. I think you right. I will see if I can find somewhere. They seem to be sold out mostly

Yeah that's not a Tokyo Marui. Odds are its a KWA
