Hi,
Try dipping your mags in a pot of water and confirm where the leak is originating from. If the leak is around the base plate, here are some generic steps to fixing the mag: 1. Punch out the pins that's keeping the base plate intact with the magazine body. 2. Remove the base plate. 3. The base plate should house the main o-ring. Remove the o-ring and clean the base plate with soap. With the o-ring removed, you should see a "trench" that keeps the o-ring steady when installed. 4. Cut and apply some layers of duct tape to the "trench". 5. Replace the o-ring and assembly your mag. 6. With the duct tape and o-ring in place, it would form a better seal.
