Nice that got it repaired fast. Let us know the part number on mc carr page so it can be fond easily. I will buy some for spare. Let us informed about what upgrades can be done on the MG1.

Here is the part number for the 7x1.5 o rings.#zmcch90m1.5x7. HTH. Thank for the other info David. Been using that FWB grease that comes in the white 4g tube. Is it silicon??? Is it ok?? Will clean and keep the threads clean of that stuff if it is???. Yes. Should be interesting on the upgrades question. They may want to sell me a new pistol instead of the upgrades!!! LOL.
Have a match to shoot at Ohio State University tonight. First time out for the MG1. Will see how it shoots. Been using a Morini 162mi.

Installed a 7x1.5mm and could not fill it up to the max as it would leak due to the pressure build up. Will have the adaptor remachined to accomodate a more common 7x2mm
Thanks for sharing

Whoa there! Try a standard Nitrile BS610 (6.75×1.78) before firing up the lathe. available worldwide.
