Just a Quick GBBR Question

Postby Switchback » Tue Aug 02, 2011 10:38 am

I have a quick question for those in possession of the WE MK16 or WE M4A1:
Do King Arms magazines fit in the WE MK16? In fact, what magazines do fit with a WE (closed bolt) MK16? I would appreciate links or a good description.

Thank you all.

King Arm's system is cloned after the WA system, so their magazines won't work with WE's rifles.

EDIT: Also, I don't believe that any other companies besides WE make magazines that fit in WE's rifles.

And when you are looking for magazines for the closed bolt system, beware that they have released magazines for their open bolt system, which are different. Just know which one you are buying.

^ this.

other companies make WE open bolt mags. WE only makes WE closed bolt mags. If you have a SCAR or a M4A1 closed bolt, those are the only mags that will work.

For the love of god I hope you didnt actually buy a MK16 though.

GHK / RA tech makes a lot of green and CO2 mags, not sure about brass tube-bolt design.
