KJW M9 Vertec on Co2?

[Hectic]

I have a M9 Vertec and was wondering if I could use the Co2 mag from a M9A1 or a HFC M190?

The vertec says its Okay for red gas I dont know if that helps.

Thanks in advance for any help.

anyone?

Okay so it seems no one knows if this will work so I ask this
what do you think will happen if I try?

I think the gun is solid so I don't think it will break at least not if I try one mag at the crony and see what the fps difference is from propane I figure if it is near the same it would not be putting extra stress on the gun decreasing its life span.

Go ahead and try it.

Any more opinions?

Get 'er done

I wouldn't lol
The KJW CO2 M9 comes with a reinforced loading nozzle for a reason, it also has a MUCH more significant recoil, sounds very close to a real firearm...
Anyway I tried to put a standard green gas mag from an HFC into the KJW and their incompatible, sorry I didn't have an KJW mags to check it out with but there's nothing different about them from other M9 mags, just a bigger plate on the bottom. The HFC mag clicked into the gun it just didn't fire.

So what if I put in a reinforced loading nozzle from a Co2 version?

Co2 mags dont work on gas guns because the hammer for CO2 guns are different.

A Co2 hammer is much stronger to push the Co2 valve open while greengas valves can be pressed easily.

Its worth a shot but it may not be strong enough to push the vavle open. And if it does it may damage the internals of the gun.

...just a warning. =)

I bought a KJW M9 co2 magazine from a store on e-bay. and tried it on my KJW M9 elite full metal vertec. The magazine fit the gun just fine but the first shot I fired blew up the back chamber of the loading nozzle. This is the chamber which fills with gas to push the slide back. After looking at the loading nozzle that I blew up, I think it may have worked ok if I had put a heavier spring in the front of the loading nozzle to keep the seal open longer and not send so much pressure into the blowback chamber. Anyone know where to get a new loading nozzle for a KJW M9?

just wanna share this Glock co2 magazine of mine.


aside of upgrading the unit w/ recoil spring, metal slide,hammer spring & etc.

i have here a modified KSC glock series magazine.

this is a Co2 magazine. inside is a disposable mini co2 gas tank with regulator and soft touch flow valve




it looks like this when you load it in your gun

wow! please tell us more.

co2 is a hi pressure gas.inorder to operate this in your gun smoothly.you have to regulate the gas flow. some co2 mags does not have a capability of regulating the gas flow so it end up of breaking the internals of your gun.
but this mag has a regulator inside. most likely the pressure is around 120-150psi.
