Thanks!
(SOLVED-SEE ABOVE)
Thanks everyone.
I'm pretty sure the leak is coming from the Input Fitting. Soapy water trick is a bit tough here because it seems to be happening where I wouldn't be able to see it as I can't open it up while gassed. Can't feel the leak anywhere, so I don't think I'd be able to see it with that method. Thanks tho.
Did a complete oiling and tear down a few times. Oiled and greased it before I used it (not a complete tear down before the first time it was used, just a bit of oil here and there).
I think the issue is that I'm not getting a good enough seal where the Input Fitting sits (silver fitting that sits on the black internal gas line). Oring is good, but leak persists. Seems it somehow manages to slide up a wee bit, really hard to say. I think the oring might be shrinking slightly under the cold temps b/c of the CO2. Tried Teflon tape but it didn't seem to help.
Been in contact with Tippman and have been on the Owners FB page for awhile, great little site there!
I'll post back with any updates, thanks again for sharing your experiences so far.
