Hey, hope this old ass video helped you save a buck on a new gas magazine.
Check out some of my newer videos.
Thank you so much, just took apart my 2011 and changed a rubber band. She is running perfect now
What size o rings do the mags need
@@zfr_rev6713 depends on the magazine
Do you have any idea how to fix the top part mine leaks on the back side of the top where that button thing is the little o-ring fell out
Sooo i tried doing this, the valve just stops half way (still inside the magazine, not even a tiny bit out) and its REALLY hard to turn, now i didn't want to destroy the threads... is it possible it has thread lock on it from the factory?
Thank you! As a beginner, I was really sad when I found out my magazine was leaking. Thanks to you it is now fixed! Dropped a like 👍🏾
1:15 is when vid starts
Thank you my guy
Definitely helped. Had no idea why the bottom was hissing
Lol it’s a high 🐈a
Got a new mag, came with some gas in it.
I tried to refill it (and I did.) but it started leaking.
Not sure what to.
This worked well for me. Bottom of my mag was hissing because I kept dropping it. Dang mag release button
You are a lifesaver bro. Just fixed my leaking mag now. Turns out, the O Ring in the screw of the mag dried up. Just put some silicone lube, and voila... Fixed right away.
For beginners out there, just use gas with silicone oil so you won't have a problem with dry o rings.
No need o ring?
Shame that you don't have many subscribers. You seem like you are definitely worthy of more subscribers than you have.
Dude i repaired 1 of my aap-01 mags doing this, you save me from wasting money on an new mag thanks a lot
just got an aap-01 out the box & after a few shots the gun expelled all the gas out, is there a common problem with the aap-01 mags or something? I’m gonna check mines today
DUDE, i just fixed 3 mags for different guns each, i was considering buying new mags, you just saved me some money, THANK YOU
I prayed and it stoped leaking! You are probably the man of god cuz i prayed normally it didn´t work, i did this thing then prayed and it worked! Thank you!
Been down a mag for about 4 months and this fixed it! Didn't expect it to be so simple, thanks.
Very good had a leaky mag where the base plate o-ring was dried out your video worked like a charm
This helped so much, thank you! Also, the problem in my mag was that it wasn't screwed on tightly, so if someone was wondering if their problem is not being solved, maybe you just have to screw it on more tightly.
So helpful bought a 2011 second hand of my mate and one of the mags was leaky did a quick troubleshoot using your video very quick and easy vid class lad
Thanks for the video, I just had to tighten the screw holding the base of the mag with an appropriate sized allen key.
Thanks for the video. Find out the hard way my magazine was leaking during game play
I thought I'd finally broken a tm mag cuz I've dropped it like multiple times now lol...but this fixed it!! it was leaking from the front bottom of the mag where the spring is to load the bbs. Thanks man
You sir are a legend best feeling ever fixing your own gear
I thought I need a new mag. Turns out I only had to lubricate the o-ring! Thank you for this.
Cheers man, video helped fix 4 of my pistal mags
Thanks for a short and simple fix video no run around b.s worked perfect
Thank you so much! I really appreciate videos cutting to the chase
thank you man i did exactly what u said and all that was wrong with it is the air hole was loose, heres a sub :)
A lot of mags also have a piece at the bottom of the feed spring that you can pull up with a finger nail instead of using a pokie pokie tool.
this helped a lot instead of get it to a store and pay 20euro for it
i hava another gun maybe you can hel me with it aswell i cannot shoot it anymore unles i hold something and schoot it
immediately fixed the leak I was having issues with. Thank you!
Thank you. Just got my first BB gun .D/E . 50 after day 2 brand new starts leaking. Was going to send it back but will try this first😉
Thank you so much. Was about to get 2 mags fixed and it would have cost like 50€
After living with two Sig Sauer We The People 1911 .177 for a year, first one, then the second, contracted the dreaded CO2 dump affliction in both magazines. While there can be multiple reasons for such malfunctions, on my two examples I found just one, and found it could be mitigated by simply preventing that CO2 cylinder from turning while you tighten. Did you ever notice how your CO2 cylinder sometimes spins with every twist as you tighten it to pierce?
Why is that important? The piercing valve at the top of the magazine is counter-threaded, (righty-loosey, lefty-tighty). So when you tighten the CO2 against the piercing valve, as it is pushed against it hard, it has a tendency to actually turn the valve itself slightly. Especially if you properly lube the top of an occasional CO2 with a drop of Pellgun Oil like you should, to keep the O-rings, seals and valves in shape.
Counter-intuitively, unlike a brand-new unlubricated gun in which the tip of the CO2 "grabs" the dry white (in my magazines it's white, could be green in yours), seal as it's getting pierced, mostly preventing it from turning even if you don't tightly hold it, a properly lubricated setup may not "grab" as well and spin. Don't think skipping the lube is a solution... that white seal really DOES need to be lubricated to prevent it drying out over time. Thus, as time goes by, CO2 cylinders eventually spin REALLY easily as you tighten to pierce them. It's surprising just how hard you then have to grip it to stop it from turning inside the magazine as you do. As you tighten and pierce the CO2 and it spins clockwise while you're doing it, trust me that cylinder is pushing hard against the piercing valve seal, which it will inevitably turn clockwise too, loosening it, if only just a little. As once was famously said, a little got more and more... PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT!
Worst part of all this is that it's darn near impossible to find a valve key (like the one that you got in the re-build kit!), that will fit within the confines of my empty magazines which would allow me to simply and easily just tighten that damn valve, leaving you to use flathead screwdrivers and the like, potentially damaging the needle or valve itself while not being able to really tell just how tight you got it. I eventually took some online advice I saw, carefully UNSCREWED THE PIERCING VALVE, removed and cleaned the o-ring or (replace it if you have one), cleaned the threads and put the o-ring back on, silicone lubed it all, then WRAPPED PLUMBERS TAPE AROUND THE WHOLE THING, both the mounted o-ring and threads, before COUNTER-CLOCKWISE screwing the assembly back in as tightly as I could with no valve key.
Another drop of Pellgun oil to top a new CO2, and tighten. While I got a quick sputter it immediately became silent - it held air! Since then, even leaving a full CO2 loaded for weeks or even months has caused me no ill effects as long as I kept the white piercing-valve seal "hydrated", kept from drying out. And following these instructions.
So as a preventative measure, if you grab your CO2 tightly while getting loaded. you'll probably always have a nice day!
great video! took 5 minutes and now I have a non leaking hi capa mag
Still not fixed my leaking mag, it’s coming from where you put the gas in I’ve only just bought it today is there any advice you can give please?
Same did you figure it out?
That was clean bro thanks for the insight all my gas pistol mags are leaky haha
My glock mags were leaking this and a bit of silicon lube sorted it out thank lad
Yesirr I had a verry diffrent mag than you it eas a tiny valve like the size of a. Small screw but it still help when I lubed it bec it was dry and it worked thank you good sir
I was trying to empty the gas from my GHK glock magazine but in expelling the gas, it shot out the rubber gas route seal from the top. I reinserted it back into the magazine after cleaning it off, but now the magazine won't hold gas at all. It doesn't just leak, the gas goes in from the bottom and equally expels out the top. Never had an issue like this before.
Big help man appreciate it 😊
I messed it up cuz of you, Tysm!!!! $50 to the drain 💀. I think I turned it too much and too hard it snapped on me
Skill issue
Most people will say thanks this helped
I will say nice moustache bro
thank you this helped to not have to take a 40 min drive to an airsoft store
See, both of mine are brand new. Is there another spot where it could be leaking from?
Thankyou. 3 mags fixed.
you r simply amazing.
Fixed, thanks
We here at JUNGLEGHOST SURVIVAL liked and subscribed
This video saved me 50$
Done the job! Thanks
my airsoft mag did this thing where i pushed the cap lock thingy and it got stuck in the mag and like the mag works and all but the cap isnt locked its like in the lock hole
Great video! This helped a lot
Is their another lubricant I can use if I don’t have silicon oil?
thank you so much
wierd question but to replace the valve say only the top part of mine screwed out and the rest is still in there? where can i go to easily find a replacement
Mine doesn’t have that release button on the bottom.
Thank you very much !!!!
You are my hero ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you! i just saved a 100 dollar mag hahahah!
The problem I have is when I shoot it leaks gas on the top it hisses very loud
What if you cant insert the gas inside because i cant find a oring in the middle like yours. Remember the first thing you uncrew on the video, its in the middle of it and if i i force it it leak and frooze my hands and too much waste...
Thank you
I have a brand new oem sig 365 mag I got off eBay that’s leaking and I can’t find that 😢
Thanks you was going to buy a new mag 😢
You are awesome 👌
anything about a ssp18 mag? it has a valve close to the top as well and i thing that may be leaking
man it worked thanks
You kind of look like Riley from LinusTechTips!
Is the thing supposed to be dry or no
How do you fix C02 mags. I can’t get the bulb to seal while tightening it into the mag.
Hey whats the other screw next to the valve? Should i tighten it
I just got a new tokyo marui mag and its leaking out the top pls help me
So I tried fixing it with the gas valve, it seemed to work but now both the top AND bottom seem to have slight leakage. Anyone got tips for me?
Mine leaks from the back of my gun where u hold it from
How do I know if my o ring is dry or what ev?
Thankyou alot man
I cant get the plastic plate thing back on
I done this with gas all in the mag still 😂😂🤦🏾♂️
What can I used besides silicate oil
I’ve been looking on multiple different resources and they say you can use wd-40 white lithium grease
Can I use wd40 as the lube?
So ahh, what if its leaking from the top...
ima try thiw bought 2 m9 chromes to playt with my nephews and both pijss gas out so couldnt even shoot
we m9 chromes cost like 2590 a piece im very dissapointed cant play with either cause they piosskout gas
Do anyone of you think i can use wd-40 white lithium grease instead of silicon?
Also, nice video!
my gas mag doesnt have a removable base plate :(((((
I literally can’t get the pin out
I dont have that sadly 😅
Thx bro worked
Using screw drive too often will f*#€ up your Valves , use a valve key , or send it to you tech airsoft shop
Mines leaks from the top
My mag is brand new and its leakin
thanks
How can you tell if your magazine is leaking from the valve or baseplate? I’m new to airsoft so I need a little help
When you add gas to you’re mag it will leak out from the area where to inert your green gas
you save me 70bucks
Haai broth,
