Help me, the newb
So I screw in my 68/45 into the duckbill on my mag after installing macroline...
I think it worked the first few tiems.
Then it just started leaking otu the ASA. I tested to see if it was the tank... Worked on my spyder.
I tested to see if it was part of the macroline.. So I bypassed to foregrip adn sent it striaght to the valve.. Still leaked.
Its leaking just as if the O-ring on the tank was broken. I tried 2 O-rings and they both got teared whenI screwed the tank in.
My theory is that teh theads in the asa are strippde to hell adn rip the o-rings when you screw it in. PRobably form the old nitro tank I had.
Any other ideas ebforeI buy my uni?

A Duckbill is just an ASA. MAgs come stock with a duckbill asa.
I'm getting a uni AND a rail soon. I've got some stuff I'm selling......I can see myself $300 richer in about a week.

Or you can think for a second, and get a UNI because its superior to some Duck's bill (Which i cant understand why you stole from him in the first place.)

my duckbill works fine.....is your tank all the way screwed in? with nitro tanks its tough to screw them completely into a duckbill, its much easier to screw them into on/offs
if it is all the way screwed in, put a little oil on the tank o-ring. after this if it still leaks then see where its coming from and use common sense to find the leak.....then come back if theres still trouble with it
