Thats what I was looking for, some kind of reasoning behind your opinion.

I see the logic behind what you were/are saying. these things make sense and offer a smart outlook. however there is very little room for the seals inside a mag to expand to and there is a very low likelyhoodthat the rings will bloat.

As far as the thickness and insulation of a mag the average mag wall is around 1/8 of an inch thick. as far as I know thats thicker than any propane tank Ive ever seen.

Finally as I said I have for the past three years kept my mags fully charged and during that time I checked a locked pistol case with my gun and 2 full mags as luggage on southwest airlines when I flew to california. I will admit that I should have emptied them becasue of the drastic elevation/pressure change, however I forgot to and when I arrived I found both mags in normal working order and still charged.

thaks for the insight however. it is a good addition to this thread

because that would be one extremely heavy propane tank

most definately.

Alex, you said that they only fill propane tanks 80-85%. My question: is propane under the same pressure when its in a mag vs. a cylinder? I'm not an expert on pressure vs. volume, but according to Boyle's Law, Pressure and volume are inversely proportional. So if you have an normal size propane tank filled to 85%, it seems the pressure would be lower than an airsoft magazine. To me that explains why the propane tank walls are thiner, because the pressure is less. Like I said, I'm no expert on this stuff. This is what clicks in my head, but I've been wrong before.
