Then get a little starter green gas kar98k from double bell to get acquainted with gas systems. It's a fun gun and it has great build quality, aside from furniture fitment issues which are extremely common in every single old bolt action rifle replica available.

So about that, my mag was miss feeding and was making my gun dirty every time I loaded that particular mag into the gun. My buddy said that the mag needed to be cleaned. So instead of waiting for him to show me in person I looked up on KZfaq, so I disassembled it and oiled it using gun grease. But after I re-assembled it, it started leaking. So I looked up the gasket ring like in the video and let my friend put it in and now it works fine. I’m not sure weather replacing the ring fixed it or letting someone who has experience with GGBRs fixed but it works 👍

"professional" and how the fuck do you think said professionals got their experience?

They're just GHK's black 5.45 magazines, but with a few layers of Tamiya PS-37 sprayed over top.

Only on co2 guns

You should always lub contact points on your gas guns it makes it smoother in operation and you won’t have damage He has also a maintenance guide for gas guns I recommend looking that up

It's not uncommon for a bit of foreign debris to get in, or for the tiny gasket inside the fill valve to tear and get clogged. Your best bet is to remove the fill valve and unscrew it (nearly all are two parts that thread together) and see if you can clean it out, relube, and reassemble.

That's a reasonably common practice, but we find there are a couple of issues with it. First is that standard PTFE tape is primarily meant to seal water under relatively low pressure, and so it does not work nearly as well to seal gas. You can get gas-rated PTFE tape, but it still isn't ideal for maintaining a seal while pressure and temperature change significantly and rapidly, which is why o-rings are used to begin with. If your mag is sealing on the threads, then it isn't sealing on the o-ring- and if it's sealing on the o-ring, you don't need the tape. And third and most importantly, most of the seals you'll encounter aren't actually threaded, so there's nowhere convenient to tape. Ultimately, we tend to feel that anything that can be sealed with PTFE tape is better off being sealed with appropriate o-rings, and there are a lot of cases (like baseplate gaskets) where you don't have a choice.

We plan to touch on that in a future video. The tl;dr is that keeping them under pressure helps keep oil from wicking out, but isn't strictly necessary with grease- as evidenced by 40mm grenades, gas-in-shell shotshells, HPA regulators, HPA-tapped magazines, and all the other systems that are normally stored unpressurized. Keeping gas in the mags makes them much easier to gas up when it's time to play, and it will alert you to any leaks, so there's no reason /not/ to, but it isn't mandatory either.

Some people say it keeps seals lubricated, is that the whole reason? @@ExplosiveEnterprises

​@zanderalberto3576 if your seals are lubricated with sillicone oil, keep your magazines slightly gassed for storage. Grease won't creep out of place like oil would, so keeping the mag pressurized isn't *strictly* nessacary. Absolutely no reason to not leave a bit of gas in your magazines though, so do it for good measure

Might it be that you damaged the pin holes? Or maybe a thicker o ring will help

@@Revan638 We're talking about 4 brand new mags out of the box

@@dhong99 im sorry to hear that

I would replace that look up the parts list and order a new one

So am I understanding right that he gun is cycling normally it's just that your getting the huge cloud? Yes, it is very possible to fill more into the mag than you should. Especially if you usually fill the mag fully and one time you had a cold mag and a warm gas bottle, that will be a disaster. You should not fill up a mag fully, gas needs space to expand. Think of it this way, when the output valve is open the pressure drops in the mag and just like water, the liquid propane starts to boil. (If you know some physics the boiling point of liquids depends on both temperature and pressure.) So the cloud you see is the propane running out of the container in the exact same way your soup would if you left the lid on and the flame on max. Ideally you only want to put as much gas in the container which is enough to shoot all the BBs but that's really hard to guess. For ex there is the GHK 4 second rule but it's not bulletproof. I usually stop filling gas the moment it stops pouring in as enthusiastically as in the beginning, which is a little too much gas but it's more repeatable than this or that many seconds. The safest is TM's system which has a limiter, you can't overfill those mags. In fact sometimes it's annoyingly hard to fill meaningful gas in them, they resist filling so much.

It’s important that your gas bottle is a tiny bit warmer then your magazines and to avoid overfilling maybe just go to a time based system try it with 4 ore 7 seconds of gas filling that sould be enough

He said in the video if you use grease to seal the o rings you don’t need silicone you actually never need it and if your gun uses silicone o rings it’s even bad for the o ring I overall grease all my mags if there is a leak or replace the o ring if regressing it dos not fix that issue

Oh and green gas ist just propane with silicon oil

You can if you want too but if your maintain your gas mags like in the video you don’t need silicone in your gas and then you don’t need green gas anymore and you can switch to normal propane witch will be cheaper then always buying green gas

In that case, there's always the option of Puff Dino "oil free" gas.

That wouldn't make sense, its even more pure propane than propane in a camping bottle (because that type has a few parts per billion of odor additives), its literally the same thing just pre-mixed with silicone oil... Sir we don't allow propane here Ah but this isn't propane, if you look at it in the mirror its clearly enaporp, and you didn't ban Enaporp! I see sir, carry on!

@Wayward Airsoft Ohhh really? oh my goodness thank youuu! lol, idk why im so scared of that, probably because im new and i already got like 700 to 1000 dollar setups, my first AR airsoft is the Mega Arms PTS MKM with an Elite Force Glock 19 gen 3 lol! and i was just scared of blowing my hand off lol, thanks again for the advice Wayward Airsoft!

Your magazine can not explode from just puting gas in to it they are designed to hold a specific pressure so they don’t brake Of course of you try to press to much gas in too a magazine it will explode but I think you would acutely need really cold gas and pump it in there at a high pressure But that will never happen with normal green gas or hardware stores propane So nothing to worry about there But you can overfill your magazine depending of what kind of fill valve you have

@@Revan638 Oh okay, thank you very much! lol

Well might be your experience but I never head an issue with it

Most rectangular gaskets were circular to start with, but took a set from being under pressure. If it holds pressure after installation, you're fine.

My Vfc m17 mags gaskets are rectangular in shape because of the way the 2 half’s go together but if I look at the parts list they are round

@@ExplosiveEnterprises I’ll have a question my Vfc m4 rifle mag leaks gas out of the back of the valve but I can’t get the valve fully disassembled is there a way to fully disassemble it?

Nvm I got it it’s screwed in instead of behing fixed from a clip
