    Posted: 30 November 2010 at 5:41pm
So i got my gun a few days ago and when i first hooked it all up it worked fine, then out of no where the balls kept shooting lower and lower until none would fire... I thought i was out of Co2 and when i unscrewed the tank nothing happened... i screwed it in again and back out a few times but still nothing... then out of no where when i screwed it in it started leaking, i figured out where. Where you connect the Co2 to the gun that little black part on the bottom of the gun that holds it in place, well there's a little hole on the side of it and the air keeps coming out of there... How can i fix this?

Make sure the tank is screwed in all the way and check the tank o-ring for damage.

There should be an o-ring that sits at the base of the threads on the tank. If there isn't one, that would be the problem.
