problem with KJW M9 CO2 leak/no fire

nulk1 · October 24th, 2011, 00:14

I am having a problem with my M9..If I shoot it rapidly it will shoot roughly 10 shots and then it stops firing and the CO2 can be heard leaking..If you remove the mag the leaking stops..Reinsert mag and fire the next shot then it will start leaking again...If you remove the mag and wait for a few minutes it will fire a few shots normally until the leaking starts again....Any Idea what the problem could be?

Mag cooldown it sounds like.

Can you explain what that means and how I can correct it?

Expansion of compressed gas causes cooling. Rapid firing any gas gun causes massive cooling of the mag, which reduced its internal pressure significantly.

Now, if you load up a fresh CO2 powerlet, can you get a full mag or more worth of shots out of it? If so, then just don't rapid fire 10 shots in a row.
