Marushin M500 woes

Alright.

So I recently baught a fixer Marushin M500 8mm shotgun. Pretty badass but its starting to prove to be a pain to get together here.

The gun initially had a pretty nasty leak, still does to an extent, but it isnt the main problem here. I can get it to store a full charge of gas long enough to fire off a few shots. I get a nice 'bang' but the bb's just kind of fart out of the gun, no real range or anything like that. I'm thinking a compression issue of some sort but I could be wrong. Is there anyone that has lots of experience with these things? I would love to get this thing in action.

Thanks!

There are quite a few o-rings from the feed tubes to the gas chamber and barrel assembly...

You would need to check them all (especially the ones touching the rotating "bolt" just before the barrel) and check if the barrel sits properly (it can be too far forward and still look OK from outside).

Alright, I'm supposing there should be an O-ring right within where that nozzle screws into the chamber assembly? I tried putting one in there but it seemed to make it restrict the range. Now its leaking like a Mofo again. Gahhh lol.

Is there anyone around that knows how to service these things?
