Socom Gear 23rd Magazine for ISSC Lone Wolf SAI ATI M22 G17 Glock Series Airsoft GBB Pistols (Model: Standard / CO2)

"Great magazine, ordered 2 but did have to ship one back due to it leaking. The one that didn't leak has been amazing. Fits my Elite Force Glock 19 (does hang out the bottom).

"These are great mags. They made my WE G17 work great in the cold.

"These are fantastic! If loaded properly they will seemlessly deliver bbs to your gun. One small issue, when they break and they will eventually break you cannot repair them. However I owned one for almost 2 years, and used it on a regular basis before I needed to replace it.

"Update on CO2 mags!

They now send mags with a harder metal co2 cap! These do NOT strip as easily and work GREAT. On that note, I got a friend to custom make me a few caps out of harder metal AND a custom key to turn them(since he doesn't have the right stuff to make the allen hole) If you want to ask around any places that do mill work, as that is what my friend is using. Just wanted to update since it's chnaged!

"Well I have to say it was the best 30 bucks I've spent on my G17.. The mag is very nicely built and works flawlessly in my gun. I put a full cart in with temps around 68-70 F and was able to get 105 rounds before cart was empty. As far as the baseplate being loos, it fits fine on mine and as far as the cap to screw down to puncture the C02 cart if you don't want it to strip out use the CORRECT SIZE ALEN WRENCH and don't try to tighten it down like your trying to kill it. I find that once it stops tightening down on its own your good to go.. I put a drop of silicon oil on the tip of the cart before I put it in the mag the oil will help it seal and also keep the O- ring in good shape.. So if you need a good C02 mag this is it take care of it use the right tools and your good to go...

Cons:
Not a dang thing....

"Bought it for an ISSC m22 and it works flawless. My pistol for some reason actually shot harder with this mag over the one that came with my gun which was bought used. The mag is of a sturdy design and has good heft to it, it fed my pistol flawlessly and has a stout spring behind the bb's. You have to be careful loading the c02 cartridge as it is very easy to cross thread this mag, hence the reason i had to buy another one as my son decided to mess with it one day cross threading it rendering it useless. Overall it seems sound but as of yet have to use it for an extended period of time.

"Great Product! We-Tech manufactured these very well. They use a 12 gram Co2 pellet that lasts ABOUT 3 full magazines. IMPORTANT: if you buy these, make sure you buy We-Tech's Co2 tool sold for 10 dollars or something here on Evike.com.

Pros:
Co2! (This is a preference)
The Co2 power is much stronger and more reliable than Green Gas.
These perform great in cold weather.
Very well constructed.
Fantastic weight and feel.

Cons:
Co2 leaks sometimes.
You must make sure that you have screwed the cap over the Co2 pellet well and correctly.
MAJOR CON- The cap that screws over the Co2 pellet is made of a very soft metal. Before I even fielded one, the screw cap was stripped and the co2 pellet inside is now trapped and remains unpunctured. (My mag is now a useless brick)
The baseplates shipped oddly loose.
Comes in bubble wrap rather than a box :/.
Came dirty. If you don't clean the BB chamber they will get stuck oddly.

Overall: you decide Co2 is more reliable than green gas, but there is a chance you could strip the essential Co2 puncture screw.

"good capacity but leaks in cold weather but not enough to be major

"Got this gun last night and on the first time loading it (with Co2) it began to strip and on the second mag it stripped and now I can't get the cartridge out again very nice gun over all I just wished they would fix this issue because now I need to spend another 25 bucks to get a new mag that might do the same thing

"When I first got the magazine it would only feed one BB at a time. The slider kept getting stuck so I oiled it and worked it back and forth then it would feed fine. Worked well with my WE G26C Advanced but I have only gone through 2 CO2 cartridges and the aluminum nut that screws the CO2 cartridge into place is already showing bad signs of the allen hole stripping. They should of make that part out of hard steel instead of aluminum.

So be warned that this part will ware out soon so I hope you find a solution to it. Me, I'm gonna try and get a steel replacement custom made but not sure if I will be able to.

"Usually don’t leave reviews, but be warned: the threads on the inside of the magazine are VERY weak. Be sure to be extremely careful and not force the cap on. I was very careful and it still stripped on the first try. Especially disappointed in WE because they always seem to advertise against “cheep Chinese” parts.

"Some of the mags still ship with the useless aluminum screw. You can buy the steel ones but just another 3$ on top, and since you don't know what cap your mag will come with, its literally a gamble if you will even need them.

The main issue is that the gas release valves are horrible and leak. 2/3 mags leaked out of the box. The seal is hard plastic but putting some oil on it seems to seal it up somewhat, at least at first. After a few shots when the cooldown kicks in and pressure drops, it doesn't seal again until cartridge warms up and pressure increases. But with it leaking, guess what, it doesn't warm up much because duh, gas is still released! So you are wasting Co2 like crazy with these.

Very frustrated as its the only co2 mag that works with the marui platform (stark do not!). And with how horrible the G design is, you need co2 for certain builds to get proper function.

Wouldn't recommend these unless you absolutely must have it for the extra pressure of the co2. cheap we junk applies to these

"The threads were horrible. Stripped the first day I got to use the mag, and only on the second co2 cartridge. These were on the inside of the mag, not on the end cap (for clarification). It worked good and fed fine, if it weren't for that one problem. They really should just make it out of a better metal.

"Terrible, Do Not Buy 9/28/16, The mags stripped instantly after the first cartridge and are now unusable.
