Leaking GBB Mags

Alright, I have WA Beretta 92fs and whenever I fill up the mags there all fine and dandy, no leaking, no hissing noises.....no nothing. But, as soon as I put either of the two mags into the gun, baam, they start to leak instantly and at a pretty high rate. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem, or is it a problem with the gun?

Note: one of the mags previously leaked, but I got some new seals for it and it was working fine for about a week, then this problem started to occur.

Thanks.

What kind of gas are you using? As well, are you putting silicone oil in your mag's before you gas them up?

Regular WA mags (didn't think/know I could use other brands...), and yes, I use silicone oil before I gas them up....by the way I am using Green Gas with them.

Don't use green gas, use propane... but don't use either in this gun, you need to use duster/134, green/propane will kill your WA, they are not meant for that, that is likely the problem, too much pressure

Awsome....should I replace the seals on the mags again? seeing how I have been using GG on her for the past 3 or so months?

Stop using Green now, get some duster and a duster adapter (pm Madmax), if it does not leak, then your seals are ok, if they do, replace them and use duster, no more problems, but whatever you do... don't use GG in a WA.

The seals and valves on WA mags only need to withstand the vapour pressure of HFC-134a for their purposes. If it can withstand propane, then it was over-engineered.

Need to oil the linkage that presses the release valve on the mag when the hammer hits it. The link pivots on an axle and if that becomes sticky (not enough oil) then it'll hit the release vavle and not return the way it should, therefore holding the vavle open and you lose all your gas.
