    Hard to say without further information.

    Which end of the magazine is the gas leaking out from? Have you oiled the magazine, if so what sort of lubricant did you use?

    At a guess (without having any further information) I'd say that the valve is sticking.

    Try lubricating it with a good quality silicone oil and seeing how this goes.

    Post more info and I may be able to help you a bit better.

    Your mag might be too cold. Try filling it at room temperature, then when full, warm it up for a while. Then see how it fares. The performance difference should be extremely noticible.

    Are you using your GBB outside?
    With the cold weather were having at the moment your mag is probably just venting the gas. Warming the mags like Inari said should sort the problem.

    Best winter gas = CO2 :P But yeah, Hobby Airsoft sell winter Gas. I have it, and use it, but it will still suffer the cool down effects.

    Yeah CO2 is best. Does the winter gas actually make a noticeable difference?
