When I blew my o-ring while taking the nut off, the bulb wouldn't come out. I'm wondering if you don't clean the inside of the mag some gunk might make a strong enough seal around the top of the bulb to blow out the o-ring.
With the oring issue ive noticed that if you hold the valve open for at least a minute before and while opening the mag nut there are minimal issues. Then again ive only put one mag through my black hornet but i noticed that once it stopped firing there was still a fair bit of gas in it and even after i had held it open for a min or two there was still a hissing sound
Brother ! yeah there are other vids but yours are the only ones that count. Do a comparison vid for Co2 bulbs - branded v generic. from what ive read - huge difference in maintenance
Interesting I’ve two mags and I thought first load up I was getting 6 mags per canister shooting 13 gels each but today I only seemed to get 3 mags per cylinder shooting 13 gels per mag 🤔
Cheers for the info bro, don't know if it would fix your problem, but I've been told the safest way is to fire gells until the gas has run out and then hold the purge as you unscrew , it's also not recommended to dry fire it either.
Dry fire is a complete non issue. If it were a strong spring like an air rifle, definitely not. But CO2 does not matter. The only thing it 'may' affect is the blowback function, but that's easily, and cheaply, replaceable. And this would be just normal wear and tear.
I not only mash the valve like my life depends on it but I also put a little silicon on the bulb and inside the mag, that way when the co2 pressurises it mixes with the oil.
hi mate would like to know more about well m401v3 and the well m401 what is the difference i have got 5 of the m401v3 that i have payed for but looking at m401v3 and m401 do not know the difference .look tje same .
I keep pressing my valve for like 1-2 mins, waiting 10-20 secs between each press and gas still comes out for ages. Eventually then when it's completely empty and no gas comes out what so ever when I press the valve it's safe to unscrew, blew 1 ring in the beginning, and now then have put countless through and it's been fine
Great vid mate! How's your trigger pull? I'm getting about 95% dead space and only about 1-2mm of active trigger pull, resulting in the full auto not working properly. Anyone else having this problem?
@@lowguidoschopshop cheers for the reply man 😎 I've adjusted this as it lessens the dead space of the trigger but the active pull of the trigger is still about 1-2mm, I wonder if it's a dodgy trigger.
Great Vid as Usual, Thanks for the reviews and tech talks.. I always seek your advice before buying or upgrading.. Just a question in regards to the Xtp.. when i received mine it had the orange tip an the barrel, i noticed you got yours off was wondering whats the best way to remove it ???
@@lowguidoschopshop sorry to ask such a basic question just didn't want to snap the damn thing... the Xtp Gbb is awesome thanks again. for the vids and help.
You can get a refillable 12g bulb that has a nozzle to fill off a green gas canister if you want, it's about 50 bucks for the set. I'm not sure on the performance though.
Cheers L-G, Sorry for the rant.. Quite enjoy your channel as you share a lot of knowledge, and you can actually hold tools correctly... oh and you can mathematics and stuff.. hahaha After owning an APS XTP for a week or so, I found that silicone shock oil around the 40wt (500cts ...remember the centistoke scale?!) is perfect. Thick as and everything loves it...rails to o'rings. good thing I'm into RC hey!? The two stage "valve/bulb piercing" option, is a solid idea but pierces the cartridge barely. I wind out the centre part all the way once the cartridge has been pierced that way there is full flow, as before (wound in) I couldn't empty a full gel load without it losing a huge amount of pressure. Nothing worse than a tiny ptttt... after 5+ rapid shots. I've had more issues with the release valve (the one that's hit by the hammer) than anything. but winding them out half to 3/4 of a turn sorts that out... My XTP, (unless I have a freak blaster) Is a later 2020 bought one, and I found, that the "mag float" (ie: the lack of seal between the mag seal and the nozzle) has been fixed. Maybe it's me winding the release valve out... It's barely 0.5mm though. 10 x c02 bulbs and this freakin' thing is perfect. consistent in every way. Great feel and it just hammers through gels. Latest is the Golden Eagle 3305 GM1911. Picky on what gels you use that's for sure. Massive kick but looks absolutely perfect! My pick is the XTP atm. Cheers mate!
My mag didn't last the equivalent of two mags worth of gels, I added lubes etc prior to use..... Then all of a sudden the whole blaster shuddered because of trapped air somewhere in the system. The valves in those mags are just bad. I went through 22 canisters in an effort to repair it and none of it worked.
Hello, I love your videos, they are my go to for reviews on new blasters and upgrades. Could you try to put the internals of the 3DG Glock into a 1911 to make an electric 1911? Ive been looking far and wide for a decent electric 1911 but alas there is no electric 1911s. However i had an idea of making a frankenstein electric 1911 with the 3DG internals. It would be amazing if you could help me test it out. Thank you and have a nice day!
Its an interesting Idea. I think maybe a bit beyond my capabilities though. the Glock action is different to the 1911, maybe someone could 3d print some thing? it would be a hard task.
This mag design looks tougher than the Kublai mags, the valves look a lot more robust over the tiny Kublai bottom gas valve. At the end of the day I'd rather replace an O-ring over a whole valve so any advances in the strength, durability and design of the mags and valves is fantastic to see
@@lowguidoschopshop looks like the valve and centre nut were not letting all the Co2 out, and the o rings blow. Had to re seat release valve and new o rings. After this I found that if you hold down the valve while unscrewing the cap you don't blow them. Day of learning today.
That shows how bad the design is (one good o-ring should do the job )they know how crappy their o-rings are . If you’re doing it being very careful what hope do the rest of us have .

Can u use rubber o rings

I just had one blow up in my hand, what causes them to explode
Hey man I just purchased a co2 gel blaster model 3309 and the mag spring is a bit too strong and is just destroying gels.. any tips?
I not only mash the valve like my life depends on it but I also put a little silicon on the bulb and inside the mag, that way when the co2 pressurises it mixes with the oil.
So which measurement do we buy on the Aliexpress link? I know you said 20mm OD but which one is that on the listing?
Any idea
Lowguido commented on another comment asking the same thing and he said
“ 20mm OD x 2mm (16mm ID) “
hi mate

Ezychargers are still expensive. Look up Australian paintball. If you buy in bulk you get em for $1 each. They are located in Ipswich i believe
Do you mod guns for people at a additional cost

there is a very small allen screw inside the trigger that lets you adjust that

what size o ring's i dont think i heard what size it was might not have been listening that well
20mm OD x 2mm (16mm ID)
the link for the orings - what size do i need - there are 3 options on the link
Says in the video.

got a recommendation on where to get green gas 12g bulbs
You can get a refillable 12g bulb that has a nozzle to fill off a green gas canister if you want, it's about 50 bucks for the set. I'm not sure on the performance though.
Great work as always man! I had the exact thing happen one one mag, but never on my other 2

@@lowguidoschopshop i see, thanks for the reply!
Nice work,you find the origin if the leaks, APS can't awnser me about that, thx for thz solution 👍👍👍
Oh thanks god. I just bought the CO2 bulbs from EzyChargers. They're bone dry everywhere in Brisbane right now. And I bought 100 of them HAHA.

I think I perfer the kublai mags, but perfer the APS blaster.
@@lowguidoschopshop Personally I like the P1S for the availability of parts but I 100% agree that out of the box an APS Blaster is way better
Use Crosman co2 powerlet cartridges and complete contents empty and you won't have an issue at all
Hey mate thanks for the patch I love it!!!
Wow I'm only getting 4 and a half mags at 12 per mag.
need a one end cap
Had 3 mags blow o rings now. On the 2 stage.
on the 2 stage as well hey? interesting.

Azreals is getting more 2 stage brass caps in too if y’all don’t wanna deal with o rings like they’re gold lmao
swap ya 2 for a muzzletek :P
Doing a Great Job Bro 🤩🤩👍🏽
Thanks as usual, always watch what you do.
I blew my O ring out too, finally found out it was the chilli the night before. 😁😁😁
The Man the legend 🤩🤩👍🏽
so what your saying is that the gas didn't vent so he isn't imposter huh ok
That shows how bad the design is (one good o-ring should do the job )they know how crappy their o-rings are . If you’re doing it being very careful what hope do the rest of us have .
Thx bro
Hey bro
hey man. Patches soon!! i'm excited.
Definitely send you one which they arrive. 🤩🤩🙏🙏👍🏽👍🏽
