Clearing Jammed Airsoft Magazines

It's quite common to have jammed airsoft magazines. Especially my M4 magazines that stack BB's side-by-side until they get to the feeding hole. Out of seven magazines I have taken to the local indoor CQB field, two have jammed BB's. You can see the jam by peeking into the feeding hole and see two BB's stuck side-by-side. If you look closely, you'll see that one of them is slightly forward compared to the other one.

Use a hex L-wrench to unjam it. A 2mm hex wrench will do. Poke at the BB that is slightly behind. It usually clears the jam right away. If you can't tell which one is in front and which one is behind, poke at them in turn until they come out one by one to the top.

Title: Metal vs. Plastic Airsoft Magazines
Weblog: GearHack
Excerpt: I recently destroyed a Magpul PTS 30 Round EMAG Airsoft Magazine. The plastic magazine jammed with BB's. And there is no way to disassemble it without destroying it (see "Magpul PTS 30 Round EMAG Airsoft Magazine Review" article). The plastic magazine is glued together without any screws. A few days . . .
