Airsoft Canada - View Single Post - Is center axis relock a viable technique for gas blowback guns.

Hey all, so I don't even know what sort of fields we have here or if we have any cqb stuff, but the center axis relock technique seems like it would be very useful, and is close to how I naturally want to hold the gun at a closer range. (or with one hand, I tend to instinctively give it a bit of an angle, maybe 10 or 15 degrees towards my center)

Now, the center action relock position is a more extreme angle, in the 40 to 45 degree range I'd say, here's an image of it.

My question is, since these guns have propane/green gas in the magazine, is this angle safe for them? I know you don't want to go around shooting them sideways, that would just be asking for trouble, but I'm curious if the gun will continue to operate properly and not vent liquid propane/green gas out when at this sort of an angle.
