Magazines

Each listing names the gun it fits. The 1911 BB magazine holds 16 steel BBs, and the 1911 airsoft magazine holds 16 airsoft BBs. The 45 and 380 share a 20-round BB magazine and a separate airsoft magazine. Schofield and 357 cartridges are model-specific and come in six-packs for BBs, pellets or airsoft. The 45 and 380 were previously sold as the Bear River BR45 and BOA.

Yes, with pellet cartridges. Schofield and 357 pellet cartridges each hold one .177 pellet, so you can shoot pellets in a CO2 revolver built for BBs, and pellets are generally more accurate. Schofield .22 pellet cartridges pair with the .22 rifled barrel kit. Rifled barrel kits are for pellets only. Never fire steel BBs through a rifled barrel.

No. A BB magazine is built for .177 caliber (4.5mm) steel BBs, and an airsoft magazine for 6mm plastic BBs. Pistols like the 1911, 45 and 380 come in both versions, and each takes its own magazine. Check whether your pistol is the BB or airsoft model before you order. The listing title tells you which ammo the magazine takes.

On some pistols, yes. The 1911 airsoft magazine and the 009 magazines hold the 12-gram CO2 cartridge inside the magazine, so each spare comes with its own gas supply when loaded. The 1911 airsoft magazine includes a spare hex key for securing the cartridge. Swapping magazines on these guns swaps both ammo and gas. Revolvers and rifles hold their CO2 elsewhere.

Load each cartridge with its BB, pellet or airsoft BB, then place all six in a revolver speed loader. Line it up with the cylinder, insert the cartridges and twist to release them all at once. Our speed loader works with CO2 revolvers that take BB, airsoft or pellet cartridges, but it is not compatible with Schofield pellet cartridges.
