Fill a Pistol Mag?

Postby T-Time » Mon Apr 27, 2015 12:55 pm

Hey guys,
So I do not know what I am doing wrong, but I can't seem to fill up my pistol mag
all the way. If someone could tell me how to do it properly, that would be great!
Thanks!

Turn mag upside down, insert gas, hold for 15 to 30 seconds, release, then hit it again for another 5 seconds or so. If your using propane, use some lube, if it's a can of green gas, then make sure it's full. Some green gas can seem full, but loose pressure for whatever reason.

Default to Youtube on how to do it if you still have questions. Seeing it done is easier than reading about how to do it.

Place your ear next to the can/magazine and you can hear it filling and when it stops.

The key is to keep everything vertical.

CO2. Green Gas. BBs. Whether or not you have a broken seal or not. We don't know. We're not mind readers and you are 13 mind you.

I must have been a mind reader, because it wasn't that hard to know what he was asking.

Well, he's asking a rather vague question.

Maybe he was having trouble getting the BB follower to move when filling the mag with BBs.

Maybe he was having trouble closing the C02 compartment.

Maybe he wasn't holding the green gas the right way.

What works for a clear Wal-mart C02 gun, isn't going to work on a TM Deagle. I was hoping the OP would expand on what his troubles were instead of being a snarky chitlin.

Ok guys, no need to make such a big deal about it.
Payback answered my question. All I asked was how to fill
a pistol mag. With green gas. The gas in the mag runs out
fast so I figured I wasn`t filling it up all the way. So I asked.
By the way, don`t underestimate us little guys.

You're right, we may need you to get into Chuckie Cheese. They don't let us big kids in there.

Derail, member how rad Chucky Cheese used to be!

Man I love singing robots! The 80's funkin' rocked!


T-Time, Jew's question/statement was a legitimate one. (when I first read it, I too thought you were talking about rounds in the mag)
Your answer was kinda snarky, which set off Nark, who has a tendency to make children cry, then your rebuttal was still snarky, instead of apologetic, which opened the flood gates to have people snapping on a 13yr old. (not necessary, if he was older, then yeah)

So, people who do the best on here, have the ability to see when they've made a mistake, apologize in a honest, and creative manner, then move on. (hint, hint)

Well said Clownbaby,
I just want to add that the forum rules, as seen here:
http://airsoftpacific.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3698
Under forum etiquette rules states,
1. LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP
2. USE PROPER GRAMMER AND FORUM ETIQUETTE
5. YOU ARE NOT A BEAUTIFUL AND UNIQUE SNOWFLAKE

So far you've broken 3 within this one post.

To answer your question, not just what, but why...
Green gas, propane, duster gas, etc. All come to you in liquid form. Thats right the gas is under so much pressure it has become a liquid. So just like pouring a pitcher of water into a cup, you tilt it and let gravity do the work. Same thing goes for any gas in a can. Turn it upside down and the liquid will fill the mag. The more liquid in the mag, the more shots you will get because it will expand into gas.

Finally, when 3 to 5 adult men dressed in camo walk into a chucky cheese, the moms get all worried and think its creepy, but if we take a 13 year old with us suddenly were not the creepy old guys trolling for kids, were just the cool uncle who are trolling for cougars... Get it now...
