Umarex Legends MP40 BB Magazine Reviews

Just like the original - great quality. And it has the notch for the spring to hold in place while reloading.

I wish it came with some sort of quick-loader. The gun is so much fun to shoot, the magazine takes a few minutes to load 51 bb's!!!

Everything !!! Plus just having extra Mags

This magazine is one of the Best made. It is heavy and we'll constructed like the M1A1. Two cylinder power and a piece of history. Imagine carrying the MP40 in combat. The look and weight are a collector's dream for authenticity.

Providing an "assist" disc made of hard rubber to take up some of the slack between the CO2 cylinders. One of two cylinder may not pierce so, problem was solved with a rubber faucet washer between the cylinders. Have not had any issues whatsoever since.

Like the MP40 itself. If it moves oil it. Drop oil on the tip of both cylinders. It helps seal and protects the gaskets. Oil on top of the magazine where the BB and air flow. Just a drop of Pelloil.. As with any gun, air or high caliber, they must be taken care of. Inspected regularly. The MP40 magazine at time will have one cylinder that will not pierce. I use a small rubber washer, or gasket, to place between the cylinders. Have never had an issues since...I have Six of these magazines and did this with all of them. Shoots perfect, no jams.

Very satisfied with the replacement mags for MP40. Especially the notch that was not on the original which locks the spring loader at the bottom for loading ammo.

Hope the spring lasts longer. The original became weak after use. Also recommend to not leave ammo in mag when stored away.

Mp 40 great BB gun full auto and semi. Shoots great on full auto I got 10,000 rounds threw it its A blast. Always see them on war movies I had too have it . Buy one and enjoy .

Make magazine more durable but lasted this long still shoots well

After awhile u lose semi auto.you have too double trigger too shoot semi auto. But I learned too live with it with 10,000 rounds threw .

Locking mechanism @ bottom of magazines.

A little mark on front of mag so l don't over fill them.

Don't put too many bbs in mags!

They added a notch for the bb follower. It fits the repro mag pouch. Surprisingly good craftmanship.

I would like them to be a little thinner to match an original mags but I'm certainly NOT complaining.

Get 5 extras so you can fill up both left & right mag pouches. $500 for a shooter this well made and a full load of mags is a heckuva deal. Mag pouches, para cases, and slings are easy to find. Just don't get in trouble with it. It is one of the most realistic replicas I have ever seen.

An Extra clip that's fully loaded means the fun lasts longer. Great price.

Every gun that uses two co2 cartridges should have a way to verify that both cartridges are pierced. EVERY GUN.

Take your time to load bbs correctly in clip.

After the defective one was replaced the new one functions perfectly.

I don't think I would change anything.

Try to stagger the BBs as you load the mag. but it still seems to function fine even if there are a few that aren't staggered. Generally I get about 50-51 BBs in the mag.

Having s spare magazine for my umarex automatic bb rifle

I do not see any thing to change

Should buy a spare magazine

being able to hold 52 rounds is awesome. The spring lever is easy to push with your finger and it has a notch to hold it open while loading

nothing

you will get the best performance out of these mags with Umarex CO2's

This new version of the mag has a notch to hold the spring back when loading. Simple yet ingenious. So much easier to load than the original.

Lower price would help me buy several more.

You will not regret buying this mag. You wont want to use the original mags ever again.

Best pricing on the WWW, and prompt shipping!

You can't find a better retailer, wish they had local store here!

I really like my MP-40. Having 3 magazines to load all at once allows the CO2 to warm up a bit between reloads so I get a little better performance. I definitely recommend having more than one mag.

A notch to lock back the follower would make reloading MUCH easier.

Put a drop of oil on a Q-Tip, pull back the follower and put the swab in the BB track. Run the swab along the inside of the track to LIGHTLY oil it and it seems to help the BBs feed more reliably. DO NOT over oil it or it will gum things up.

The magazine was a pleasant surprise in that it functions much better than the original magazine that came with the MP40. There were no jams or malfunctions when using Umarex Black Diamond BB's. At 80 degrees F, mixing full and semi-auto, the CO2 cartridges lasted slightly over 200 shots. That was more than the original magazine delivered. I did mix a half dozen Daisy silver BB's in one magazine load to see if they would mis-feed as they did in the original magazine; there were no problems. The mag is pricey, but works well and makes the MP40 even more enjoyable.

It would be very easy to modify the magazine so the follower could be held back by inserting a pin or to supply a wire catch. I made a catch from a piece of coat hanger that holds the follower while the mag is being loaded. Although not part of the magazine, Umarex should have an available cap for the Black Diamond BB's that would allow them to be poured into the magazine opening. That would be a very simple "fix" to make loading the magazines easier. One can probably be rigged up from a plastic ketchup container top.

I sprayed dry lube into the BB stack of the loaded magazine and that may have helped the performance of the magazine. Loading carefully, it is possible to rock the mag back and forth so the BB's do stagger. As the CO2 cylinders near the end of the charge, the bolt has to be manually cocked for the last dozen shots - not a big deal. The MP40 is amazingly accurate and a lot of fun to shoot!

i had to get a replacement as my original was damaged by fouled bbs. Wirks great! Only use quailty bbs, no copper that corrode.

Thanks for quick shipping, these were a gift for my wife who's only complaint was it took so long to reload. After 1day she had made her own speedloaders out of drinking straws, a loading tool that holds the spring back(coat hanger) and a clearing/ cleaning rod (welding rod). She mastered the trick of staggering BBs in no time. With the extra mags it just adds to an already super fun gun.

Perhaps a free fix (3D printed) for the failure of piercing both CO2? Extra hex wrench maybe?

The fun factor is off the charts. Stock up on CO2 and BBs.

These were a gift for my wife. She purchased the mp-40 and her only complaint was she couldn't reload fast enough. Since then she has fabbed up her own speedloaders and a mag spring holder that cut down on the reload time.

Mag loading double stack style takes a minute to adjust to but if it works don't fix it.

Be prepared to have sore face muscles from the constant grin. Oh and stock up on C02.

Capacity

Needs a way to lock the spring when loading BBs.

Seems to need frequent oiling to keep from jamming up and not firing.

The MP40 and magazines work like a champ.

need a detent to hold the spring back, still not hard to load once you figure it out

The entire system is reliable, get around 150 good shots at usable power, drops off shortly after.
