Ok so I currently have 3 A-5's and am having a similar problem out of both. I have a steady, but slow stream of air leaking out near the trigger of the gun. I have greased and replaced the o rings in th back of the gun and it is still occurring. The guns still fire fine, it just seems like i am wasting quite a bit of my air. i drained a 72 cu tank with about 800 balls.  Any suggestions would be awesome.

If its leaking by the trigger, have you lubed the tombstone o-ring? If you are running a 3k tank, you actually are getting about the right amount of shots. You should still fix the leak though.
