Ahem, yes, I was in a hurry to try out one of my mags, only left it sit empty for a few hours. Lol!!
Thanks, I'll try that

Didn't work . I did it once, they still leaked, so I pulled the mags apart again, cleaned them, and applied the gasket maker quite a bit more liberally... yea, still didn't work. Mags still leak.. much slower, but they still leak. At this point I'm about ready to give up.

Use propane! Problem solved! Maybe duster isn't putting enough pressure on the seals.

You have to put a bunch in to make a good seal. I've done it on all of my MK23 mags and have never had a problem with them and I did it over 2 years ago. I used just regular silicone though.

Never store GBB mags without gas in them...preferably green if you have it.

E hobby asia sells the mags for cheap on Ebay.
