Ok so, I have a King Arms M381 with some missing parts. I replaced all of the missing parts, including the gas valve, but I'm hearing bad leaking from the valve.
These are (fairly) new parts, so I'm not sure what's going on. Could I not be screwing them on tightly or something?
P.S.: This is the M381 I got from Viper about a year back. One of my M433s is also leaking slightly (you can't hear it, but you can smell the propane coming from the valve).

You want to check and make sure you screwed everything nice and tight. Perhaps you forgot to install an O-ring or two? Double check everything over and reinstall all the parts. You make actually want to resoak all the valves and O-rings in 100% silicone oil. Perhaps use some blue loctite also to make sure everything is sealed off (I would use this as the last option).

Ok, I THINK I got it sealed. I'm going to leave it filled for about 30mins just to make sure, but so far there's no hissing or smell coming from the valve.
UPDATE: Looks like it's working good now. I'll have to play around with it a bit more to be sure though.
