TSD M1911/WinGun WG321 6mm Co2 Pistol

 I purchased my TSD M1911 non-blowback, full metal 6mm airsoft co2 pistol from Pyramydair about 4 years ago, and it slowly leaked gas right from the start.
The TSD M1911 shoots 0.20 gram BB's around 500 fps, so i had planned to fix the leak, which was probably easy, as long as disassembly would not be terribly complicated.
After putting off this repair for four years, i tried some of the 6mm carbon steel alloy balls which i recently bought and th third round got jammed in the barrel!
Now i had to finally repair this Co2 pistol, and there are a few "how to" videos on YouTube.
i was able to easily follow this video, and i unjammed the barrel, put everything back together, and by some miracle it no longer leaked gas!
i chronographed a few carbon alloy rounds that went as high as 336 fps.
would you know it! i jammed the barrel again!
at least i can quickly repair this pistol now 🔫
