    Hi Guys

    Just wondering if it would damage a pistol mag to leave a semi filled Co2 bulb in it it? . Normally i would fire till its empty and then remove the remainder bb's from the mag after a game. Seems a bit of a waste though, common sense would suggest it be removed for storage etc but just wondering what the rest of you think.

    Cheers
    G

    i tend not too, i see where you're coming from, trying to save money but i find a euro bulb cheaper then a mag :P
    CO2 in a mag will probably damage seals/ O rings due to pressure so i would advice just emptying it

    Yeah, thats what I thought. Still can't figure out why the mags are so expensive either.

    they're fairly complicated. very little difference in green gas mags and CO2 mag prices though

    i leave c02 in my mags and never had problems with them, i work with c02 in water coolers for sparkling water and found when c02 is released in 1 go it cracks the o ring due to freezing causing leaks.friends of mine empty there c02 mags and all have had leaks so i say leave it in and save money on co2 and new mags.:)
