Dear all, I am just wondering should I take off the gas tank every time after playing? After how long then it is safer to take off?

So far I leave it there for 4-6hours....

I don't think it matter how long you have them on your paintball gun.  But, just to be safe, remove it after your done.

You can remove a co2 tank whenever you want to. Just shoot your gun while unscrewing it that way you don't bust an o-ring from the pressure all coming out past it.

The air pressure would ramain into your valve. witch, it wouldn't cause any trouble at all.  Tippmann valve are pretty strong anyway.
