So i go back To the Shop And I told THe guy the problem was still there . The clerck then Re-dissamble the gun and change all the O-rings and put lubs on each of it Even Change The power tube Then tries it again ANd its ok...
Come back home Again try to set the The new Red dot i bought than i ear This friggin leak again

If you click on "post options" in the upper right corner of your post it will offer a choice that allows you to edit your post as opposed to double posting.

Try cocking it before installing the air tank would be the first thing I would suggest.  I would also suggest that when you get the leak fire it a few times and tell us if it keeps leaking.

Edit:*  Did you use the same tank at the store and at home?

*This is a good example of editing a post as opposed to making a double post.

Are you sure you are screwing in the tank all the way into the ASA? If not then it will leak out from there. Don't stop screwing it in just because you hear that first hiss of air.
