please help (quick easy ques.)

[gizmolax13]

on the back of the on/off...that little white oring (teflon i think)
is it sposed to be white and is it sposed to be hard?? mine is briht white and it's real hard like maybe it got frozen w/ co2 and won't seal anymore....
please let me know quick
well there are 2 little white ones and they are both like that...should it be liek that or no?

Yes, white and stiff.

Co2 did not do that to them! They are high pressure, self lubricating seals, normal O-rings would not work in their positions. They are designed to allow the on/off pin to slide through them, while keeping the gas pressure at bay.

But don't let "self lubricating" fool ya, they still need to be oiled now and then!

ok thanks...i thought since they were hard they wouldn;t seal....
ok should i try oiling them? cuz i have a leak down my barrel that i thought was a spacer (try putting a smaller one in) my spacer now is .220 and that's the 2nd smallest.
but i dunno cuz when i hold the trigger down the leak stops...so i thought maybe an oring is bad in the on/off...
hopefully the smallest spacer will help
otherwise any1 else got any ideaS?

Also try changing you power tube oring. That will cause leaking down the barrel.

i don't have any extras...but it does look fine

Normal o-rings work in there, just not with Co2 :)
I believe regular mags use the teflon o-rings because when you use Co2 with them, they won't freeze as easially. Retros don't have teflon o-rings.

If you are leaking down the barrel, and you do not have an O-ring kit, try this;

Pull your on/off valve and get the one large O-ring that is all the way on top (surrounding the smaller white one). Now pull out your PT O-ring and swap these two. They are the same. Now see if you are still leaking down the barrel.

Sometimes this swap can fix a leak with no other problems resulting.
