Genuine Vorsk VMP baseplate

The baseplate is the removable base of your Vorsk VMP gas magazine. It closes off the gas reservoir and houses the fill valve that you charge the magazine through, so it is central to how the mag holds and takes on gas. This is the genuine Vorsk replacement, sized correctly for a direct fit.

When to replace it

Magazine baseplates take a lot of abuse. They get knocked during fast reloads, dropped on hard ground, and scuffed in kit boxes. A cracked, chipped or worn baseplate can stop the fill valve from seating correctly, which leads to gas leaks when you try to charge the mag. Fitting a fresh plate puts that right.

How the fill works

On the VMP magazine the fill valve lives on the baseplate. To charge the mag you invert it and index your green gas can onto the valve on the base. A sound baseplate keeps that valve aligned for a clean, leak-free fill every time.

Keep your mags going

This is an inexpensive way to bring a knocked-about magazine back to full service. Grab some green gas while you are here, or let our Kent repair workshop service the magazine for you.

Frequently asked questions

What is the baseplate for?

It is the removable base of the magazine. It closes off the gas reservoir and houses the fill valve you charge the magazine through.

Which mags does it fit?

It is the correct replacement baseplate for Vorsk VMP series gas blowback magazines.

Where is the fill valve?

On the baseplate. As with all gas blowback mags, you invert the magazine and index your gas can onto the fill valve on the base to charge it.

Why would I need a new one?

Baseplates take knocks during reloads and drops. A cracked or worn plate can stop the fill valve seating properly, causing leaks, so a fresh plate restores a clean charge.

Is it easy to change?

Yes. The baseplate is removable with minimal tools, so swapping it is a straightforward job.
