JoelS Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 hi there , i bought a eu raven g18 about a year ago and the magazine i got with it has now started to leak i hear it come out of the bottom of the magazine where you fill it up and about a month ago i bought a 50rnd extended magazine for it and that has now started to have a hissing sound from the bottom . i use abbey silicone oil on the mags and i am wondering what to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Put new input valves in them. You could rebuild the valves, but they’re tricky to do, and new valves are only £5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sawyer Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I've fixed a couple of magazines with gasket maker before. Otherwise you can try new o rings. When you store the magazines do you leave gas in? Edit- Although if it is the fill valve the above is void. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When my WE MP5 mags have leaked the fill valves were all good, it was the seal between the baseplate and the magazine body that was knackered.

MadMole Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Its almost always the bottom seal as its the largest and weakest. Push out pin, pop it all out, clean and re-silicon grease the O ring/Gasket normally fixes things. Even getter a bit of blue Hylomarn (Silicon gasket) around the O ring and re-asemble, leave 24 hours and its fixed permanently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
