Hi Chaps,

I've done my first review on the new Empire GS, they're pretty damn awesome for the money. Let me know what you think:

Do you know why one would leak straight out the box?

Do you know why one would leak straight out the box?

There could be many reasons. It depends how long it has been sitting in the box as the O rings could have degraded.

Also from experience, Empire like to over lube their markers. Too much lube causes leaks. I've had an Axe, and Axe Pro and a Vanquish 2.0 leak straight out the box. Best bet is to re lube the bolt before using it. Also the lube that comes with the mini GS is terrible, it is worth getting a better replacement lube...

What lube would you recomend for the Mini GS?

I'd probably use something like Gr33se or Dye Slick lube. They are still Dow 33 but are a bit thinner so will work better in colder weather.
