    tank not recharging? please help

    i have a air america armageddon tank that i think i may be having problems with.the last time i used the tank it worked fine,,,no problems at all.its been a while since i have played and i was jsut going over all my gear.
    i have the pressure on the tank set at 900psi.then i fire may mag the pressure drops down to 700,,the next shot it drops down to 500,,and so on.if i leave it sit for a few seconds the pressure goes right back up to 900.
    i only had 1000 psi in the tank,,could that be the problem?not enough air???
    thanks for any help you can give.

    Go fill your tank than try again.

      Pop the reg apart, clean and lube it. Then check for nicked or sliced o-rings on the carrier. thats the piece with two o-rings on it, one inside and one outside. Try that and then let us know what happens.

        1. Conduct a clean and inspect on all internal parts of the reg
        2. Refill the tank and try it on the mag oncemore.
        3. If it still doesn't work, then begin to worry.

        Note: Steps 1 and 2 may be done in either order.

          Step #3 should be: Email Shane-O......lol

          If cleaning and lubing doesnt help email me.

          And oh yea, dont use dow33 or other grease, use airgun oil or goldcup type oil.
