    Where does the gas vent out of,the valve at the bottom of the magazine or the barrel? It might be just the cold weather.Have you carried out maintainence on it? Here's a link about caring for your GBB http://www.justpistols.co.uk/gascare.htm There might be a problem with the O seals.

    Try leaving the gun on a heater before firing it again, if that doesnt help, remove the slde and have a look at the hammer to see if theres any wear on it, it might be catching the slide and preventing the gun from re cocking itself.

    It's possible the gas release valve needs to be oiled so that when the hammer hits it, it is not releasing all the gas from the mag in one go.
