Glock 17 Magazine

    I bought a spare magazine from RSOV:
    http://www.rsov.com/index.php?target=products&product_id=2337

    But the valve on the bottom where you fill it with gas is damaged. When you go to fill it gas does go in, but as your filling it gas also shoots everywhere.
    Is there anywhere where I can buy a replacement? Or is there anywhere I can go to get it fix? As I don't really want to go to the trouble of trying to return it.

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Maybe it just needs to be screwed on properly.

    I was hoping that myself, but no the pin thing in the center is bent to one side. I could get a picture of it if anyone needed it.

    I was thinking of taking the refill valve out of the bottom of a lighter, but I doubt it will work.

    Ah I see.

    Have a look at this guide then, he is using a lighter to fix his broken valve.

    Thanks PornStar, that guide was very helpful, but still no luck :(. I replaced the O ring in it I made the spring longer and still nothing.
    The thing is the mag actually holds gas and it doesn't leak (I put the valve under water and no gas bubbles were coming out). So the only thing left that I can think of is that the valve on the mag and the fill nozzle on the bottle of gas just don't match up. So I was thinking of trying one of those adapters that you get on the top of a bottle of butane gas for refillable lighters.

    Other then that I really have no clue whats wrong or what to do :confused:.
