also its hard to take the tank off, i have to use a lot more force than to put it on, and a super Newbi ?, how do i uncock my spyder with out taking the air tank off, and is it good to leave the air tank on?

well i had this prob few times can't get rid of the problem unless you have on/off for tanks

the reason is cuz when you screw off your tank with CO2 some liquid comes out while unscrewing off so the oring freezes and it pops off so .... take your tank off fast asap only advice i could give ya

to uncock w/o taking the tank off... hold onto the bolt and pull trigger and let it uncock itself slowly

It is probably because you are taking it off too fast. You have to give time to depressurize the seal between the gun and the tank. It is that pressure that keeps destroying your o-rings. Unscrew it slowly until you hear the gas begin to release, then take it off the rset of the way.

Fire shots in short incremental times while degassing. This relieves the pressure and will not freeze the o-rings.
