co2

for some reason, when i unscrew my co2 tank from my a-5, c02 starts spurting out more than normal and the co2 tank almost pops out of the ASA when ive finished unscrewing it. Afterwards the ASA gets really cold and the edges around the ASA go white. Do you know why this is happening? it doesnt usally happen. I think it might be due to the cold weather because its only happened when its been cold outside. Also, it says in my manual to screw the co2 tank out 3/4 of a turn so the pin valve closes and fire the remaining air supply out of the marker. Should i use that method instead from now on?

thanks for the help

you should still fire out the gas in the gun, it will save the tank o-ring.

do you mean the o-ring not the marker?
