I just got two mags that were sealed with silicone gasket sealer. HOLY CRAP that stuff stinks!!! Close to I'm going to barf stink.

This stuff does peel off nicely though...so I cleaned it out and tried white silicone grease. Can Tire, automotive section, usually close to the loctite/gasket sealer/grease/etc...you can get a big tub of it, but a tube goes a long, long way.

I greased up the "o-ring" seal and put it back together. I then used overly oiled gas to fill the mag. Worked perfectly the first time. There was some "grease blowout" with the first couple of mags of gas...so I just vented the first mag, I'll have to remember to swab out my barrel later.
