You have 2 ways in solving yer question... 1. remote line with a slide check. 2. on/off valve wit the anti-siphon tube in the tank. Or you can do both 1 and 2 like I did. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

in the owners book it says to unscrew it 3/4 of a turn out and fire a few shots to take the pressure out of the gun then unscrew it all the way, if the pin in the tank is a little longer you might have to unscrew it more and fire a few shots before you can take it off completly. if you just unscrew it with out releaving the pressure you can blow o rings on your tank and gun/damage the tank or gun/hurt your self. ------------- http://img204.imageshack.us/my.php?image=260991706090alb8rs.jpg">
