The SCS Tokyo Marui TM Hi-Capa 5.1 Aluminum Magazine Baseplate is an aftermarket upgrade designed to enhance the durability, aesthetics, and functionality of the airsoft pistol's magazine. This is a replacement of the stock, potentially less durable, plastic baseplate with a high-strength aluminum alternative. This modification caters to airsoft enthusiasts and competitive shooters who frequently drop magazines during reloads and demand more robust equipment.
Features:
• Enhanced Durability: Crafted from CNC-machined billet aluminum, the baseplate offers superior strength and resistance to damage from impacts and drops compared to the standard plastic part. This extends the lifespan of the magazine, especially in intense gameplay or training scenarios.
• Improved Reload Speed: The added weight of the aluminum (compared to plastic) helps the magazine to drop more freely and consistently out of the magwell when empty, leveraging gravity for quicker and smoother reloads. This provides a tactical advantage in speed-oriented competitions (e.g., IPSC).
• Aesthetics and Customization: The precision-crafted aluminum with an anodized finish enhances the overall look of the pistol, adding a premium, customized, or "competition style" appearance. The SCS baseplate has a custom look and a specific integrated retainer screw with a fill hole for the gas valve.
• Better Grip: Some aluminum baseplates feature a textured design (as is common with aftermarket options for this platform) that can provide improved grip, making magazine changes more secure and reliable.
• Protection: The robust construction helps protect the bottom of the magazine from damage when dropped on various surfaces during play.
** Only fits Toyo Marui TM 5.1 magazines!
