Abstract

A gas canister replacement structure of a toy gun has a main structure including a push carrier, a carrier opening, a pressurized gas canister, a gas canister carrier, a carrier magnetic attraction portion, a magnetic element, and an elastic element. Based on such a structure, the gas canister carrier is fixed to the elastic element and the magnetic element only by means of the carrier magnetic attraction portion, so that it only needs to pull the push carrier through the barrel portion to expose the carrier opening in order to allow the gas canister carrier to be removed with a bare hand for replacement of the pressurized gas canister disposed therein, so as to achieve an effect of easy and efficient replacement of the pressurized gas canister.
