What to do to gas pistols for the cold?

I run with dual 7" silver striker dragons. The only upgrade is a 150% spring for more efficiancy. The guns work flawlessly and consistanly dump a full mag, even when hammering the trigger as fast as I can, in warm/hot temps. Winter is coming and I hear alot of bad press for gas guns in the colder temps. Are there any gun upgrades to help make them work better in the cold. These are my main weapons so keeoping the gun under a coat or something for warmth is not an option. Has anyone tryied the mags that you put thte Co2 cylinders in during the cold, do they work any better.

There really is not any effective method to keep gas pistols usable during Canadian winters. It's simple physics - as the ambient air temperature decreases, the amount expansion the gas undergoes when fired also decreases, hence less energy=malfunctions, slides not blowing back etc.

Perhaps look into an aeg if you are 18+
