ok, got my tank filled for the first time with this gun. thought i did everything right.



i pulled the bolt back and then screwed the tank on. put the hopper on and everything then turned the safety off.

took a few shots outside just to make sure everything was ok with it. unscrewed the c02 and thought everything was ok with it. when i put the tank to my ear, i could hear a little bit of a leak. so i went back to my local shop and they swaped it out for me.

i havent tried the new one yet because i wanted to make sure i didnt do something dumb the first time around

were was it leaking from precisely? Sounds like you got a tank with the burst disk not tefloned or loctited in well enough. You didnt do anything wrong i can see.

im not sure what its called, but the top middle. whatever that little pin is.

it was barely leaking, and if you put ur finger over it, it stopped

[txaggie08]

may have just been a bad pin valve, or there could be something wrong with your asa. probably a defective tank, CO2 tanks ar not manufactured to the highest quality standards

sounds cool. guess ill try this one out tomorow and hope i dont mess it up.

They do that sometimes. Usually if you poke it with a screwdriver and let a small burst of gas escape it'll seal again.

Wasn't your fault at any rate.

well, i figured it might just have too much air in it or something, so i reattached itand took a few more shots. took the tank off and it was still leaking. thats when i took it back to the store.

I have some older tanks, and this happens a lot. I just screw them back in and then unscrew them or do what torch is saying. It's just that the pin didn't line up perfectly.
