This thread is saving my life right now. I'm so glad I stumbled upon it. I got a WE PDW open bolt about three weeks ago. Used it the past two weekends and have only one issue, the PDW mag does not get through all the bb's before its out of gas. My M4 mags are fine and have been reliable so far. I'm using propane, .23g bb's and shooting at 350fps in temps between 50-60 degrees F. The simple mods to prolong the life of my GBBR in this thread are awesome and I have done a few to reduce wear already. Thanks for the original post to get this thing rolling.
