Froudy 40 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Hi lads, I have a old metal type bsa r10 mag and the O rings keep breaking? Any ideas? Atb Froudy Quote Link to post
moxy 617 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Old rings perhaps and the rubber is perished. Not lubed correctly and they are dry. The wrong size rings and they have been over stretched. Not the correct shure. Too hard too soft. A slight burr inside the mag causing it to rub when it cycles. A few suggestions to start you on your way 1 Quote Link to post

ArchieHood 3,692 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 It sounds like the magazine alignment is out,do the pellets look fairly central to the hole when you load the mag? If the mag locking pin is not always in place it will have an affect on the O rings. I always lubricate with a bit of fanny batter. Quote Link to post
