Theoben Rapid High Capacity Magazine 177, 20, 22 and 25

Regular price £34.50 Sale

Replacement Magazine for Theoben Rapid Air Rifles.

Compatible with Impact GSX, Mk1, Mk2 and MFR Rapids.

Will fit under Dr Bob and SMW rail adapters.

Pellets remaining indicated by a slot on the spool and number embossed in the front.

Factory made in sintered Nylon. I only supply 3D printed magazines and spares by special request. I can make 3D printed mirror image magazines so they insert from the right. If your scope wheel is blocking access please give me call or email.

Accepts pellets up to 9mm long.

Adjustable variants contain a small grub screw that allows the casing to be pushed apart slightly to adjust how tight the magazine is in the breech.

High capacity:

  • 177 - 19 shots
  • 20 - 17 Shots
  • 22 - 16 Shots
  • 25 - 12 Shots

Each magazine is manually sized to be a firm fit in my Theoben Rapid Mk1 breech. The barrel slot is deep enough to accept the majority of guns without adjustment.

The magazines are easier to load and top up than the OEM versions. Each pellet is inserted sequentially, starting at the first hole visible.

These magazines are 15.2mm deep. Customers have reported that these are loose in RAW guns. The newer RAW guns have 17mm deep magazines and are not compatible.

NOTE ON LOADING AND PELLET JAMMING: Pellet jamming can caused by two reasons.

1. The first is magazine seating. If the magazine is not fully seated (flush with the opposite side of the breach) then it will enter the barrel at an angle and may jam. If your scope is preventing full seating then please get in touch for a shim to lift the scope.

2. Loading. The o ring installed in the spool exists to stop pellets falling back when the magazine rotates (it is not a loading aid). When loading short pellets ensure the pellet head is past the o ring. For easy loading rotate the spool past the exit hole when loading each pellet.

A small number of Theoben guns have factory mounts that are slightly lower. Theoben ceased using them because they will not accept 50mm objective scopes. If you have these mounts then please let me know and I can supply a couple of 1mm scope shims so my magazine will fit under easily. If the distance between the top of the action and bottom of your scope tube is less than 9.2mm and your mounts appear to have sharper edges than the one in the photo then you have low mounts and need a shim.

Troubleshooting:

If the magazine is pressing on the scope it may not be fully seated and will cause pellets to roll and jam. The resolution is 1mm shims to raise the scope (please ask) or higher scope rings.

RAW guns can suffer from loose pellet probes which cause the pellet to roll, please ensure your probe is fully screwed in and tight. PTFE or locktite might help.

I googled for mk1 rapid magazine and SMW magazines came all good reviews and a good price so ordered 1 and also the 2 shot shuttle. I find it very useful when trying different pellets save a lot of time I can recommend 100%.

Brilliant bit of kit

Must admit I had concerns at first when the mag was far too loose in the rifle but a quick adjust with an Allen key and it fits like a glove.
Easy to fill and so far faultless in use.
