My biggest pet peeve is gasket seal in mags. I got a second hand 1911 and all of the mags had gasket seal. I had to scrape it all off with an exacto knife. Lubed the o-rings and no issues.

It the leak persists, I like using SAP(it stands for something, but I forget) tape. It's a super stretchy rubber tape used in electrical work. It sticks best to itself and when crushed in somewhere it acts as a great seal that can be removed just by slicing and peeling it off.
