welchyd1 Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 I bought a nearly new TM G17 from this forum which came with one magazine. When I cocked it and fired the trigger it had gas in it. After a few shots it was empty. I've tried to fill it with a bottle of Nuprol 2.0 gas and it just spits it all back out in my face. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I've got a few WE mags for my WE 26c which appear to have an oring in the fill valve but the TM one doesn't. Is this normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 All TM mags do that, it’s actually air in the mag that is coming out (or should be) not propellant gas. You can fit an o ring from Lees Precision Engineering and it won’t spit air out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welchyd1 Posted May 10, 2018 Author Share Posted May 10, 2018 But after an attempted fill and blast in the face, the mag is still empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 You have to be precise with the gas canister as there is no o ring, perfectly vertical in relation to the mag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RR01 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 And you fill it inverted, i.e. with the fill valve up and the canister pointing down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T5dogz Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 I solved my mag by putting the tiniest rubber o rings I've ever seen all sorted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
