Gas guns live or die on how many magazines you own. A single one means you shoot for a minute and then stand still refilling it while everyone else advances, so the realistic answer for a game day is three or four rather than one spare. This is the magazine the gun ships with, so there is no question of fitment or a reduced capacity.
The loading gate on the front is the practical detail. Rather than fighting a spring-loaded follower while pouring BBs into a narrow lip, you pull the follower down, hold it at the gate and fill. It is the difference between a twenty-second reload in a safe zone and a two-minute one with cold hands.
If you own a KMP9 or KMP9R as well as a TAC-9, the same magazine covers both, which is worth knowing before you buy platform-specific spares for each gun.

Good to know
How many should I buy? Three or four in total for a full game day. Gas magazines empty faster than they fill.
Does it fit my KMP9? Yes. KWA list this magazine for the TAC-9, the KMP9 and the KMP9R.
Which gas? Green gas. Follow whatever your gun is set up and chronographed for rather than mixing propellants between magazines.
Why does it hold gas better when warm? Propellant pressure falls with temperature, so a cold magazine delivers less. Keeping spares warm between games is the single cheapest performance upgrade on any gas gun.
