  • 30rnd Capacity

  • For SSP1/SSP2/SSP5 GBB Pistols

If you want to keep your Novritsch Hi-Capa in the game for longer, load up on these! The Novritsch 30rnd Magazine for Hi-Capa GBB Pistols; V3 is compatible with most Airsoft Hi-Capa GBBs and ideal for SSP1, SSP2 and SSP5 platforms from Novritsch. Like other green gas magazines, the fill valve is on the baseplate, requiring both the magazine and your gas container to be inverted to fill. 

Loading BBs can be carried out either through the feed lips or the follower channel when the follower is pulled and held down, either using a speed loader or by hand. If you're running a Novritsch 'Capa, a few of these are essential to keep it doing what it does best!

  • 70rnd Capacity
  • Mid-cap mag - No battle rattle
  • For Novritsch SSR9 AEG

If you keep getting your SSR9 snagged on the battlefield, the shorter Novritsch SSR9 70rnd Magazine is perfect for you! It is constructed from high-density polymer and can be loaded through the fill/feed port at the top of the mag body using a speed loader or loading rod. 

The 70rnd magazine is quite a reduction from the 120rnd magazine that comes with the SSR9. However, this magazine's short design allows you to play closer to the ground and cover, allowing you to be less at risk of taking hits while delivering them to the enemy team!

The slim design of these magazines allows you to carry plenty, and it goes without saying that you'll need a lot of them to keep up with the SSR9 DSG's insane rate of fire!

If you need mags to keep up with your SSP28's insane rate of fire, these are the ones!

Loading BBs can be done either through the feed lips on the top or through the widened follower channel on the front by pulling down the follower. Please note, this magazine is only compatible with the SSP28 GBB and won't fit the SSP18, TP22 or any other EU series GBB we have tested.

The objective lens is huge, meaning you get a wider field of view than most comparable rifle scopes for an easier time tracking moving targets and the ability to see more around your crosshair.

This scope has been tested with real steel firearms by the Novritsch team who proved it was more than just "another airsoft scope". This beast can withstand the force and kickback of some real steel beasts including assault rifles and sniper rifles.

  • Biodegradable!
  • Heavyweight BBs
  • Compatible with Novritsch ''Full thrust'' platforms


The 0.58g BIO BBs are 6.44mm in diameter, which means they are only compatible with snipers that have been upgraded with the Novritsch ''Full thrust'' kit and also require a Novritsch ''Full thrust'' magazine. The higher surface area of the 6.44mm BBs means the force of the BB when it hits is spread over a bigger area. This results in the 0.58g 6.44mm BB causing no more damage than a standard 6mm BB when shot at equal power and range. These white BBs come in a resealable bottle which contains approximately 420rnds, plenty of ammo to hit those shots from across the battlefield and being white means they can be easily tracked due to their contrast with the colours of mother nature.

The heavier weight of these BBs means they will travel further, provide better accuracy and maintain more stability in the wind. This provides a superior sniping experience and allows you to hit opponents consistently from extremely long distances. These BBs are biodegradable, which is perfect for outdoor skirmishing. What's better than a veteran sniper? An environment-friendly veteran sniper!
