Guest Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 It’s a 1911 with a thin mag. More or less they’re all the same, you can’t get enough gas in them, and they cool down too fast. CO2 mags work well in 1911’s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassically72 Posted December 30, 2019 Author Share Posted December 30, 2019 I think c02 would probably kill the gun. Might have to go down the route of a full size compatible 1911 mag. Legend has it that they do fit. Either that or just keep it to 10 shots a clip. Thanks buddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassically72 Posted December 30, 2019 Author Share Posted December 30, 2019 ok further update. just fired a clip off (eventually ) it appears that coming down to the last few bbs are not quite seating properly . you have to manually push the slide up to click them in to place. oddly enough with an empty clip the gun fires perfectly with no sticking slide and the gas goes on forever. go figure its a brand new gun ! common problem amongst GBB pistols ? or just an unlucky mag ?

bassically72 Posted December 30, 2019 Author Share Posted December 30, 2019 update on the update. saw plastic swarf on the bb clip on the topside of the mag . very gently shaved it off and the shot count seems to be improving. still think a new mag is in order once I find out which ones are compatible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
