    #1 Welcome to AO.
    #2 Don't type in all caps. It's considered yelling.
    #3 Your leak is coming from the on/off assembly. Check the orings in there. I'm willing to bet it's the bottom oring, and needs replacing.

      Use your ear. Listen to the hiss with your ear near the grip frame. Then listen with your ear at the barrel end of the body with the barrel not installed. If the leak is coming from the grip frame area, then it is probably the bottom outer on/off o-ring. If the leak is coming from the barrel, then you probably need a shorter powertube spacer (or remove a spacer if you have a level 10 bolt).
      Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.
