I have a question about the A-5 i got over Christmas, for the past two days i had been trying to figure out how to field strip the thing and i finally found out how. After I managed to get the gun back together it started leaking gas out the ASA adapted where the tank screws in and where the ASA hose screws into the Tombstone, I replaced an o-ring on the hose and on the bottle and now whenever i try and screw a tank in it starts leaking until i get the tank in it, then it shoots like normal. my question is are a-5's supposed to this, or is there a really simple solution?

It is supposed to do that. You are depressing the valve pin on the CO2 tank, but the tank is not screwed in enough to make a seal. When you screw it in all the way, it makes the seal.
