WE – M92 – 15 – MAGAZINE FEED LIPS
These are replacement magazine feed lips for the WE M92 gas blowback pistol, listed as part number 15 in WE’s parts numbering for the model. The feed lips sit at the top of the magazine and hold the next BB in position until the nozzle pushes it into the chamber.
WE’s M92 is a popular gas blowback pistol, and its magazines see heavy use. Cracked, chipped or spread feed lips are one of the most common reasons a magazine starts to misfeed or drop BBs, so a genuine WE replacement is the simplest way to bring a magazine back into service.
Signs of worn feed lips
Typical symptoms include BBs falling out of the top of a loaded magazine, double-feeds, the pistol firing without a BB, or BBs jamming at the top of the magazine. If the problem follows one magazine rather than the pistol, the feed lips are a likely culprit.
Lips are often damaged when a loaded magazine is dropped on its top, or when it is forced into the pistol at an angle.
Fitting
Empty the magazine of BBs and gas completely before working on it. Feed lips are generally held in place by pins or screws at the top of the magazine; note the order of any springs or the BB follower parts as you go, and test the magazine with a few BBs before refilling with gas.

Care and maintenance
Keep magazines clean and free of grit, as dirt on the feed lips is a common cause of misfeeds. Wipe them with a dry cloth after a game and use only good-quality, seamless BBs.
Store gas magazines with a small amount of gas in them to keep the seals in good shape, and put a drop of silicone oil on the valves and seals every so often. Do not oil the feed lips themselves, as oil attracts dirt and can reach the hop-up.
Who is it for?
For WE M92 owners with a misfeeding or damaged magazine who want to repair it with a genuine WE part.
Please note: Feed lips only; magazine, gas and BBs are not included. Always wear suitable eye protection when testing a replica.
