Goblin Deuce launcher issue

I was curious about the Goblin Deuce a strange weapon between a sawed off shotgun and a grenade launcher so i bought it. Very funny weapon but with an issue.
The bb's in the shell's barrels are retained in place by oring seals but at the first shot almost the seals are fired off.
Anyone has tried a good solution to this issue? Before trying to glue the seals now I use a piece of scotch tape over the top of the shell, just a little piece to avoid bb's falling

Buy a bag of elastics/rubber bands at the dollar store.

It works the same, and if the are blown out, it's 500 for 1$

I've got the solo, same problem. I had received some unpolished .2 bb's as a gift and they sometimes jammed when I tried them in one of my cheaper guns, (tested before daring in anything else). They do however stay inside the goblin shells much better. I think they were either cybergun or ultrasonic, could have been cross man too, (I'll dig them out and post again later). Test firing showed them not to shatter at 400fps 5' against mesh mask, or goggles.

Ok, but put new seals or rubber band every time is boring. The adhesive tape is more easy.
About the giant orange tip, anyone has tried to remove withoud damaging the barrels?

all plastic if i recall correctly? Tryin to heat or use chemicals to remove the tip will be hard without damaging the barrel. Id just paint it.
also, u shouldnt have to replace the ring every time, its likely the quality and age of the original seal was the reason it blew out

A costly but effective solution is to use Madbull shotgun shells instead of the Goblin ones. Never had a problem with the new shells; in fact I never used the original ones (too crappy IMO).

Madbull shells are the best thing out there to be honest, especially for the goblin launchers.

However, I ended up removing all the O rings from my goblin shells and just used packing tape to keep them retained. Just be sure to seal the tape on real good or you won't be getting much out of the shell.

If you can find the ammo I'm talking about you can just forget about the o rings, they become unnecessary, the odd bb falls out once in a while but it doesn't effect anything.

Yes, all plastic. A idea may be to saw the tip because is glued at the end of the barrel and after sanding and polishing

Are these cartridges full compatible with the Goblin? do they works both co2 and green gass/propane?
I googled and I found some Madbull gold shells, are these the right shells?

Yes, these.

They're super strong and reliable. All metal.
Fit perfectly into the goblin (even better than the original shells) and they can use both propane and CO2. But don't use a single BB with CO2, that's over 450fps easy.

A question using the Madbull Shells: the Goblin, both Deuce than Solo doesn't use the barrel of the gun to shot the bb's, right? the barrels are the holes inside the shells where bb's are inserted, so, I ask if with the Madbull Shells is the same, because from what I know these shells are made for Tanaka shotgun with "real" barrels.

Bought the Madbull shells I am a bit disappointed: they doesnt' work with co2 as written on the manual (only low pressure gas) I tried just fro test and is necessary too much strenght pulling the trigger to activate the valve.
And as I supposed these sheels are made to work in a real barrel gun instead of the Goblin shells designed to shot bb's from the own 4 barrels
