Trying to find inlet valve for a savia staccato magazine, as pictured on the right, compared to a hi-capa on the left. The savia is slightly smaller and has a tighter thread. If anyone knows where I could source it l, would be appreciated.
Don’t mention Armoured Heaven, which is where it was bought from, because Brad has no interest in helping after sales support. And if you read this mate, some reviews and further information is coming about your poor service.
From what I was reading after seeing your post, you might be better off trying to replace the o rings as I could not find replacements and was finding mixed opinions on compatible replacements and what it’s size is
From Reddit:
Compatibility Caution: Because Savia (manufacturing for EMG / Staccato airsoft platforms like the Staccato CS) uses proprietary tolerances on their version-updated high-flow magazines, it is recommended to measure your specific valve pitch with digital calipers or source direct OEM parts through specialized retailers rather than forcing generic aftermarket alternatives.
Problem is the gas is coming out from the centre and not the outside (threaded) area. Is there a way to disassemble the valve?
From Google ai search
Yes, you can remove and service the inlet (fill) valve on a gas blowback magazine, but completely tearing down the tiny internal components of the valve itself is usually discouraged. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
How to Remove and Service the Inlet Valve
Depressurize the magazine: Press and hold the rear striker valve to empty all remaining gas before attempting any work.
Remove the valve: Use a specialized valve key or a small flathead screwdriver to carefully unscrew the fill valve counter-clockwise from the magazine body.
Clean and lubricate: Wipe away dirt and apply a few drops of silicone oil to the external O-rings to fix minor gas leaks. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Why Internal Disassembly Is Not Recommended
Fragile parts: The internal spring, tiny center pin, and internal O-rings are extremely small and easily lost or damaged.
Inexpensive replacements: Because fill valves are considered cheap, fragile consumables, most techs simply replace the entire valve unit if it is severely damaged rather than rebuilding it. [1, 2]
I myself would not attempt such a feat as I am fairly inexperienced with gbb blaster repairs, I would suggest taking it to another store to make enquiries as to a possible replacement, maybe try x-force by going into the store in person, they may have something there that might fit but from what I’ve looked up, it’s a proprietary inlet valve and as such likely won’t have a replacement unless direct from the manufacturer
