Leaving a mag full of gas?
 

I was wondering if it is safe to leave a magazine full (to the max) of gas for long periods of time?

1) 1 Day.
2) 2-7 Days.
3) Weeks - Months.

I already understand it is safe and recommended to leave a little gas inside for lube.

Generally when I've left mags completely empty they have leaked. Worse one was my M700 mag, I had run out of gas and the mag was empty, so I left it for a week until I got more propane. Filled the mag, gas leaked out from the back end of it. I fixed it with gasket sealer from CT. Case in point, ALWAYS leave some gas in your mags. Not full, but some.

If you leave a mag full of gas in a cold or hot area, the compression within it might cause some trouble.

ok, thanks for the quick responses.

Shit, I've left green gas in my mags for a few months this winter... And never emptied them all summer... They work fine (not the only one doing it either). Now I started to use propane, and I empty them all the time cause it (the propane) will wear out your seals since it's not mixed up with silicone like green gas...

everytime you buy a new mag there is always just a bit of gas in them. So keep just a bit in.

yeah like said before...its puts stress on the o-rings...just store a LITTLE bit in em...
