I've had my a-5 for a year now.. I always make sure to fill it before it gets too low. Recently I was outside practice shooting when the gun stopped working and it made a loud moaning sound and just blew out the remainder of the c02. This is what happens when you run out of c02 right? Really dummmb question I know but just making sure.

Yeah this is what happens when your tank is low. The low pressure in the tank cant cycle the gun completly and you get loud fast continuous cycles. Did it sound like full auto?

Listen and tap your tank on the bottom and slosh it around... you can tell how much is in there.
Think and give them all you have from the beginning, and never weaken!
