problem with CO2
Hello everybody, i’m a new member from Spain. I have A Condor CO2, and i have a trouble with it. May be you can help me.
When i put a co2 bottle in the gun, i can hear how a bit of it is going littel by littel out of the bottle, through the adapter. If i touch or move the valve of th adapter, i hear how it looses more or less gas. Sometime, rotating it, it completely shut up and don’t loose any co2 no more…
I’m sure this is not the way it is suposed to be… so, what can i do to fix this little problem?
Thank you.

you can try a few drops of silicone oil (same as used for paintball guns) in the back of the adapter before installing it on the co2 tank. Dry fire the gun a few times to push the oil through the valve seat in the adapter. Often this will clean/seal the valve.
You might want to drop Airforce an email asking for what should be reccomended.
I have heard of several of those CO2 adapters leak. If it were me I would dismantle and clean it and the orings and make sure there is no debris on the valve seat. CO2 can have a lot of dirt in it from the tank it is filled from.
I’d replace all orings with the highest quality possible that can handle CO2 and lightly lubricate them. And makes sure the valve seat and seal are not nicked.
