Question:

I sometimes have a little trouble with the nozzle freezing over. It then sticks and vents gas when shot lowering the FPS considerably. Is this a normal thing?

Details:

TM G17 with PGC slide + upgraded springs
Room temperature firing
WE mags using canned king arms green gas

Problem usually occurs after firing of a lot of rounds in succession, or having used the pistol for 2ish hours pretty heavily for indoor.

Fixes itself usually overnight or if I drop a little lubrication into the nozzle.

Visually it looks like the nozzle gets frozen over, leaving a white residue that makes it hard for the nozzle to move freely back and forth.
