Description
Northeast FAMAS F1 25-Round Gas Blowback Magazine
This is a 25-round gas magazine for the Northeast FAMAS F1 gas blowback rifle. Spare magazines are essential for a GBBR, because each magazine holds both the BBs and the gas, and having several filled and ready keeps you in the game when one runs low on gas or ammunition.
Northeast’s FAMAS F1 is a gas blowback replica of the French bullpup rifle, and dedicated Northeast magazines are the surest way to get reliable feeding and gas sealing in it. A 25-round capacity matches the realistic feel of the rifle and encourages careful, aimed shooting.
How it works
The magazine stores gas in a reservoir and feeds BBs up to the rifle’s nozzle. Each shot releases gas to fire the BB and cycle the bolt, so magazine condition, seals and temperature all affect performance.
Our listing for the Northeast FAMAS F1 rifle (based on a retailer listing) describes a metal gas magazine and states that green gas or CO2 can be used; please check which type this magazine is set up for in the product photos or contact us before buying gas.
Using it
Fill the magazine with gas through the fill valve, load BBs, and insert it into the rifle. Let magazines warm to room temperature on cold days rather than heating them, as GBBRs lose pressure quickly in the cold. Carry spares in pouches and rotate them so each has time to warm up.

Compatibility
This magazine is made for the Northeast FAMAS F1 gas blowback rifle. It will not fit AEG FAMAS replicas, which use different magazines. We also list Northeast FAMAS spare parts, including a magazine gas cap (NGR01MAG0001), front nozzle and loading nozzle unit, to keep your rifle and magazines running.
Care and maintenance
Lubricate the magazine fill valve and seals with silicone oil every few fills, store magazines with a little gas in them, and never overfill. Gas blowback rifles cool down quickly in cold weather, so keep spare magazines warm and allow time between bursts.
Keep the magazine clean and free of grit, especially around the feed lips and the gas outlet, and wipe it dry if it gets wet. Use good quality seamless 6mm BBs and check the seals regularly; worn seals are the most common cause of gas leaks and can be replaced.
Who is it for?
This magazine suits Northeast FAMAS F1 owners who want spares for longer games, and players building a realistic French-army themed loadout.
Please note: Gas and BBs are not included. Always wear suitable eye and face protection when using airsoft replicas, and check your site’s rules and power limits before play.
