Huntsman H17 HG3 DE Series Gas Magazine 6mm Plastic
This Huntsman 6mm gas magazine with a plastic body is listed for the H17 HG3 DE series of gas blowback pistols. A spare magazine lets you carry more BBs and gas into a game, so you can reload quickly instead of stopping to refill.
Plastic magazines are light, which makes them easy to carry in numbers, and they are a good, affordable way to build up a set of spares for your pistol.
About Huntsman
Huntsman Tactical is an airsoft brand whose range includes the H17, H18c and H34 gas blowback pistols as well as parts and accessories to support them.
Filling and loading
Fill the magazine in short bursts with the can held upright, then let it settle for a moment before use. Load BBs through the follower slot, push the magazine fully home until it clicks, and fire a few shots at a safe backstop to check feeding before a game.
Use the gas recommended in your pistol’s manual. A magazine’s BB capacity is not the same as the number of shots from one fill, which depends on temperature, how quickly you fire and the condition of the magazine.

Compatibility
Listed for the Huntsman H17 HG3 DE series. An HP version is also available. Please check your pistol before ordering, and test any new magazine before relying on it in a game.
Care and maintenance
Put a drop of silicone oil on the fill valve and the gas seals every few fills, store the magazine with a little gas in it so the seals stay tight, and never overfill. Keep the feed lips clean and free of grit, and avoid dropping the magazine on its lips.
Plastic magazine bodies can crack if dropped on hard ground or overtightened, so handle them with a little care and check them now and then for damage.
Use only silicone-based lubricants on rubber seals and O-rings. Petroleum-based oils and solvents can make rubber swell and break down, which causes leaks.
Who is it for?
This magazine is for owners of H17 HG3 DE series pistols who want light, affordable spares for longer games.
Please note: The pistol, gas and BBs are not included.
