    Ok, lost the seal for my KJW mag, the one which contacts the needle, not the o ring. Where can i get a replacement?


    Cheers

    I'd be interested in getting a valve removal tool and info
    on maintenance of GBB mags.
    my KJW Mag started to leak from the fill end the other day.
    And was helpless to remedy the issue.

    The valve comes out with a stadard flat screwdriver but thats not the problem, its the seal that fell out.

    if it leaks from the filler valve you can remove it with a flathead screwdriver and what i do is rub a small amount of puncture repair glue on the thread, that way its easy enough to break the seal if you need to remove it again in the future, as long as you re do it fairly tight but not over the top then it shouldnt leak anymore.,

    No, its the one that seals it while filling!

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Masada


    I have an old non Gbb m9 somewhere that should have the same type of valve on it, if i can find it your welcome to it., will PM ya if i find it,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kdouglas


    take the valve out and bring it into somewhere that sells o-rings and find the right size, i remember going into smyths builders providers looking for o-rings years ago and they had a big box of every size you could imagine neatly laid out


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,170 ✭✭✭✭ED E


    Ok, will try that.
