UserID: 56 |  Leaky Pumps I have two weapons that soak me because they leak like half their water through the pump shaft. This IS fixable using the pump mod, right?

UserID: 1 | Yeah, it should be fixable. The homemade I am 95% done (all except glueing) uses only electrical tape as the O ring on the pump. If you get it right, which takes some time and experimenting, then the tape can have a perfect seal by itself. Try lubricating it too, it makes it seal better if you use a thick grease such as vaseline and also makes it buttery smooth.
