Specifically the flow valves on the magazines (part 57). It appears two of my magazines have failed, gas just hisses right out the valve when I try to fill it. I don't see any problems with the o rings, so that leads me to believe the valves themselves are shot (for a gun i've used all of 4 times, I don't get how either, but go figure..). My point is, I need replacements. Does anyone know where to find Hudson replacements (knowing this is a hell of a long shot...), or where to find ones that will work in them?
OR, would I just be better off trying to convert it to AEG? (as I know someone here has apparently done, and a link to that topic would be appreciated)

I have had nothing but issues with my hudson, the sling mount popped off in the middle of a fight, the barrel broke ( I still havent figured out how... I truly believe i looked at it wrong) and had to be guerilla glued back on. My Stock "button" gets stuck, so 9 times out of 10 when you go to extend the stock you pull it out of the gun. I am also disappointed with the finish.
I only have one mag and I have no idea if it still holds gas as I havent used it in forever. But if you need a parts gun let me know... I have the Ares M3A1 now so I hardly need the Hudson.

I waas looking more at the fill valve, but yes, hearing the horror stories from it, I might want to do that. How is that Ares by the way?

Kalbs did a amazing review on it on the "reviews" board... but in short, it is Sweet!! one hurdle to making it a exceptional battle weapon is the availability of mags. Go over and look at Kalbs review, the pictures don't lie.

I'll do that, But I guess the issue with the hudson won't be solved soon huh?
