Gas pistol HELP PLZ!

Bubbahoetep · January 10th, 2013, 19:27

I have a WE hi-capa 5.1 and I just bought 2 brandnew TM brand hi-capa magazines for it and have a couple questions.

1. I have heard/seen that TM gas pistol mags do naturally make a hissing sound when you fill them (just air escaping as liquid gas fills the magazine)

Can someone confirm this for me please??

2. When I fill the magazines and load them into my pistol and fire off a shot, The slide locks back and does not fully cycle back to firing position.
What the heck is going on????

HELP PLEASE

1. Well, if you fill them too much, the valve will let off excess until it depressurizes to a certain point. You don't need to absolutely plug your mag full of gas, just enough so that you can fire off the entire magazine. Count the seconds you fill the mag and test and see how many rounds you can fire off on said fill.

2. Your gun is a WE Hicapa. They're not exactly renowned as reliable, or even quality pistols. Does it do this with your WE magazine? And have you lubricated the parts of your pistol lately?
