High Capacity Magazine For Daystate Air Rifles
One of the few disadvantages of Daystate and Brocock (make that BRK) airguns is the relatively limited mag capacity. However that has now been addressed by this high capacity magazine for Daystate air rifles from Midwest Elite Airgun.
True, high capacity magazines can be bulky add-ons. But for specialist applications – for example Speed Silhouette competition – they can be a life-saver!
There’s no doubting the capabilities of Midwest Elite Airgun’s high capacity magazine for Daystate air rifles as John Bagakis placed second in the Open Class for Speed Silhouette at Extreme Benchrest in 2022 using one. That’s John with Red Wolf and magazine in our heading photograph above.
Indeed, there were several others using Midwest’s mags in their guns at EBR 2022, including Lauren Parsons (below).
So let’s have a closer look at Midwest Elite Airgun’s high capacity Daystate magazines…
These mags hold a total of 24 shots in .22 caliber. In .25 cal it’s 24 shots and – even in .30 caliber – it’s 22 shots. That’s a lot of lead!
The magazine works by using a flexible belt to hold the pellets. This is pre-tensioned using a knob. The knob is locked into position for loading, so that you don’t need three hands!
After the belt is loaded, the lid is flipped down again and you’re ready to load it into the air rifle.
It’s a tight fit under the scope, but it DOES fit, so long as the scope turret is avoided.
One of the many outstanding capabilities of Midwest Elite Airgun’s high capacity magazine for Daystate air rifles is that it can be mounted on either side of the gun. Installing from the left would be a big advantage for left-handed shooters, although it would obviously not be compatible with a big scope wheel!
Midwest Elite Airgun has produced an excellent instructional video for these magazines. In it you will see an explanation of the system, together with a demonstration of functionality.
Plus you get to hear about all the extremely clever extra features that have been designed-into it by the inventor Chris Smith. Chris is the owner of Midwest Elite Airgun and general great guy!
You can buy these high capacity magazines directly from Midwest Elite Airgun. Alternatively, they’re also available from Airguns of Arizona, so you can order one with your next Daystate air rifle!
