Leaky mag?
hey there, this is my first GBBR and I have no clue where to even begin to start, I know nothing of these and don't even know where to start.I spend $300 in mags for this gun and fortuntly only two leak, I need your guy's help on what the problem is and where to fix it.
heres a vid I made explaining more into it. so you guys can see what's actually happening here. YouTube- Leaky mag halp so this is what I think is what you guys call a "leaky mag" and I'm pretty sure it's that little brass valve/pin assembly. I'm pretty sure it's the thing in there that's leaking heres what it looks like with the pin pushed in whole gallery of mag: http://img822.imageshack.us/gal.php?g=1001876h.jpg So? what do I gotta do to keep these things from leaking? |

sounds like you're having a valve leak, just unscew it out and put some sili oil on the o rings.

remove the flow valve and drop a drop of silicone oil on every O ring you see.
make sure that the brass spring thing is in proper alignment you can take a working valve and put in in the leaky mag to better dtermine if it's a valve issue

okay so that brass thing is the flow valve? I unscrew it by the grooves you see in the first picture right?
I depress that pin but it still sits above the brass bit that hase thegrooves in it so I can't get to it with a flat head, How do I remove it? |

You may mave to use two small screwdrivers on either side. They can be really finicky sometimes.

in some cases you can use a screwdriver but you're better off buying a valve key as you will damage the valve
I'd warn against the SD Tri valve key as I had both flow valve and and fill valve tabs bend with no crazy overtightening

yup, that was my replacement. works for most GBB flow valves
though you're out a fill valve key, really though unless you've got a fill leak you should probably leave them be

that key will work on GBBR mags? I don't know if gas blowback pistols flow valve's are smaller than GBBR's valve's or not, all my sidearms run on those cassiopeia individual gas shell cartridges (super realism ftw!) so I have no pistol mag's to compare. do you know this for sure? |
