I try to shoot my gun after i bought  it. I shot is it was good first 100 shots then after that the air tank was shooting unlimited shots until the air was finished. Is this because i did not oil it or it is a bad gun.

That's generally the sign that the tank is empty. When the tank gets low, there's not enough pressure to send the rear bolt back far enough to catch the sear, so it just bounces back and forth- that 'unlimited shooting' as you put it, until there is no more air in the tank at all.

How long did the 'unlimited shots' go for? If it was just a few seconds, then your tank was not full when you started shooting. If it kept going and going for a while (why didn't you stop it?) then you might have a mechanical issue preventing the engagement of the sear.
