-Spare Clips
You can get extra clips for just about any and every airsoft gun. Clips for gas handguns are usually expensive due to the metal construction needed to hold and contain the gas. They usually have low capacity too. Clips for spring guns (handguns or rifles) usually have pretty good capacity but cost depends on the supplier.
AEG clips come in two basic types; the spring powered and the clockwork type. The spring powered clips usually have a low capacity of 28 - 80rds because it is just constructed of a tube and a spring follower. The spring powered mags are the most reliable. The clockwork clips usually have a capacity of 200 - 600rds because they use a clockwork motor which you have to wind up (before putting it into the gun) to keep pressure on the follower. These are a nessecity for sustained full auto. Clockwork mags can occasionally jam but they usually work just fine. As far as I know, all AEG clockwork clips are completely metal.
-Extra Batteries
Some people who play airsoft say that you should always have a spare battery to use incase your first ones get's used up. Other people say that their first battery has held them through a whole day and that they've never had to use a second battery. What would I do? Well, I would buy one battery for your gun and play around with it. See how long it lasts you and if you | |  | think that you will need a second battery in a battle, then buy another one. There really isn't a set thing to do. People play differently and depending on how they play, batteries can last shorter or longer periods of time. Some people can stretch out a battery to last a whole day, others can't. Also, along with your battery you will need a charger and most importantly a discharger. In order to prolong your batteries' life, you must discharge before each charge.
-Scopes & Lasers
 | | You can put scopes & lasers sights on just about every AEG out there, as long as you have a scope mount for it. Some people use scopes just to spot people while others actually use |
them for their aiming capability. Laser sights come it different sizes and they go on different places on the gun. They are only used to increase accuracy of the gun and they all have their own distance | |  | the laser can reach.
-Double Magazine Holder
Magazine clamps allow you to clamp two magazines together while one is inserted into the gun. This allows the user to change the magazine more quickly. Of what I've read, you can buy clamps for the MP5, M16, and G3 series. For guns like the SG-550 and SG-551, you don't have to buy a separate clamp because their magazines automatically clamp together. | |  |
