KWA Fill Valve

Post by Schuyler » Wed Feb 17, 2010 8:29 pm

The magazine in my KWA KP45(1st edition) has been leaking for quite some time now. I can't seem to find one... anywhere. AirsoftGI, Evike, AirsoftAtlanta, Redwolf, even KWA's online store is out of stock. Does anyone happen to know a site that has one? I found one or two, but the total came to around $20, for this $5 valve... Hoping to get it for a little less than that =/
Thanks,
Schuyler

You aren't really going to be able to find one any cheaper than that. GBB parts are expensive, to say the least. I have a spare that I could give you except that it's missing the o-ring. If you can find yourself an o-ring, you can have it for the price of shipping.

Have you tried just tightening the fill-valve? My KWA Glock was leaking until I did that.

A little late in the day now, but I'll certainly try that tomorrow. Thanks!

Battlecat SWORE to me this was the problem, and alas, it is not. I stuck each end of the mag in water a few minutes ago, bubbles at the top, not the bottom...

So, I believe I am looking for a new gas release valve.
