  1. easy check the tank o ring, replace it and then oil it


  2. I'm assuming that you are hemorrhaging Co2 through the barrel or where the tank screws in.

    First thing's first, check the O-Ring on the Co2 tank (that little rubberish ring that is about the size of something in between a dime and a nickel).  If it's frayed (or missing) simply replace it.  Go to your local paintball store, they cost like 25 cents.

    If that isn't it, check the o-rings on the bolt.  There should be 2-4 o-rings depending on bolt design.  They need to be replaced (or maybe cleaned).  Again, 30 cents or so a pop.

    If that isn't it, then buy Teflon tape (about $3.00) and wrap the joint where the leak is coming from so that it fits snugly.

    All this stuff can be found at a paintball store and shouldn't cost more than a few dollars.

    To prevent this in the future, just be sure to maintain your gun by cleaning it, putting gun oil (like $2.50) into the gun through your ASA (Air Source Adapter, where you s***w your tank into), and oiling all the o-rings.

  3. i think u need a new tank
