Low-cap magazines is most commonly used in spring operated guns, gas and AEP weapons. There are also variations of the magazines made for electric AEG guns. It is designed primarily for users who require more airsoft reality associated with frequent overcharging.

Slight disadvantage of these containers is the necessity of filling BBs through the upper window (simply solved using speedloader) and also the capacity of the balls in the magazine is about one third compared to hi-cap magazines. The advantage is noiselessness.

Magazines with a basic capacitance, BBs are filled to the magazine from top and during firing are loaded by compression spring. The advantages lie in the realistic capacity and produces no noise.
