Gas escaping through the barrel

    Hi guys,

    I have a TM p226 green gas pistol. I haven't used it much but while using today I found that the gas escapes through the barrel.

    Both mags are leak free so was wondering what this would be. It happens with both mags a few shots and then all the gas comes out the barrel.

    Any help appreciated. Could it just be the cold weather??

    Cheers guys.

    Could be the loading nozzle / release valve sticking open. Disassemble and lube all the usual contact points and re test.
