This technique is not new as we have been doing this to Benjamin Marauder Magazines for years. The information is not new but the presentation in the Gauntlet realm is.

In this tutorial, I show you how to reduce or in most cases, eliminate the rotary magazine from damaging the skirts of your pellets. This technique can be used on the Benjamin Marauder mags as well.

Tools Required:
* 5/64" Allen wrench
* Compressed Air
* A rat tail file like those used for chainsaw sharpening.

Haji: I knew this vid was out there so I did not bother to watch until now. All I can say is thank you for showing all of us novices THE WAY!!!

[lacyelliottoldmarinedad]

I know I’m late to the show but I love your videos. Thank you so much. Your videos have increased my shooting pleasure

[dondrums]

This really explains the mag. My spring shifted loose and needed reconstruction Thank you!

[remwoodz]

Excellent instructional video.., ., , great close up work and explanation.., , ezcellent credibility

I have 2 mags that came with my origin, and I bought one extra mag. One mag gave me problems from the start. Then all 3 would not load properly. Then they just jammed, and I couldn't empty the mags fully. Sometimes the mag would not chamber, like there was an obstruction.
Today, I sent the 3 mags back to Pyramid Air. They told me to call Umarex. I spoke with Andrew and he said he has been there 3 years and only had 2 calls about issues. I told him about you and he said anything that you do, would void the warranty.
I'm sure what you fixed is causing my problems. If I have problems with the 3 new ones, I will do what you taught me and explained so well. Thank you so very

This is the reason I came to you with my question, I knew I could get the correct answer but after watching this video it absolutely makes 100% sense to me, haji I truly appreciate all you do for us. We can always learn from your videos. 👍👍👍👍. Thanks again!

THANK U SO MUCH HAJI I WAS PUTTING THE MAGAZINE IN MY RIFLE AND IT WAS ONLY TAKING THE FIRST AND SECOND SHOT FROM THERE IT DID NOT WANT TO SPIN ANYMORE THANKS TO YOU I OPENED IT UP AND PLACED THE SPRING THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO NOW I SAVED MYSELF 10 BUCKS FROM BUYING A MAGAZINE 👍👍

Your an encyclopedia of knowledge thank you for a simple solution to the unexpected fliers that have plagued Marauders for years. In your hands you've demonstrated that entry level guns can compete with high end guns.

Thanks for helping me make my dream 22. PCP air rifle. You and shoot to kill Outdoors have helped me make my gauntlet a powerful tack driver even at 80 yards. I'm able to take out good size pest out to 90 yards which is almost the limit of my yard. And to be honest I didn't think I was able to shoot and take out pest that far with a $300 PCP.

Hello Haji I recently purchased the the Guantlet receiver "as I call it" from Buckrail, and you gave me the military discount Thanks. When using my mags the #5 pellet on all 6 mags has to be pushed in all others drop in, and I noticed that in my shot groups 4 in one hole 5 th out. I'm going to do this work on all 6 mags.
Thanks, so much for this video.

[stevengoodman]

Thanks for showing us how it's done Haji. Now I have four of these to do! Appreciate it.

[gregmills]

Really appreciate you sharing this knowledge. I tried it and was very impressed with the results. Thank you sir

[dougskucas]

Another benefit of the modification.
When you pull the bolt back for the next shot, the rounded corners allows the o rings to go back through the magazine without scuffing. I had to replace them before the mod. Now it's not an issue any more.

[georgeshorb]

thank you for a wonderful informative and extremely well done video on improving the magazine as well just taking it apart and putting it back together

[danielcote]

Thank you so much for taking this time and putting out so detailed presentation.

[sirkorbendallas]

Great video Mr. Moto, easy step by step, and follow-up of results.

[senatorjosephmccarthy]

Thanks Haji, I just fixed mine, to an Aspen. I bent the spring for more pressure to keep it in the hole, as per Shootem's fine video. You're a capable teacher.

[elriezgodeexistir]

Hajimoto, hello!
Your explanation and details were superb. Your video would go through the roof if you would show that magazine at work, shooting its rounds successfully. Thanks for your hard work, and dedication.

Hey Haji, Alan from Lawrence, MA.
I had an excess plastic burrs on the leeding edge of the teeth of my UX Synergis magazine carrousels, as well. One tooth was hairy enough to stop the rotation, so that the next pellet was not delivered to be inserted into the breech, causing a few dry firings, until I figured out how to fix that with a filed bevel on the leading edge of all my mags carrousels.
While the mags were apart, I took the spring and super glued it's end into the hole as I had also had one mag lose its tension when the spring sprung. So far so good.
