I think that's a relatively new model? Perhaps covered by manufacturers warranty? Say you got it as a "gift" (that's "for sure" well within it's warranty period check their warranty policy for this clock ticking down expiration first) unless you can dig up that receipt if it was an online purchase perhaps on a credit card statement? They will probably trade you for a brand new one if you didn't tamper with it so hopefully you didn't.

It is not a new model. It was purchased at Wal-Mart 3 or 4 years ago so the warranty is expired. It has lasted longer than I expected it would. Nope I did not try to take it apart yet.

Do you have Alphabet org Transmission stop leak quick fix? If you're lucky you just may be able to swell the seals back without having to disassemble the gun by using this stuff generously where you put your pellgun oil put a lot it will swell up the seals. I would try this first before taking it apart.

If you have a compressor air hose sprayer nozzle use it to blast it in as you feed that Alphabet org stop leak instead of wasting more co2s. Over do it and be generous keep blasting compressed air at it. Let sit for at least a day maybe 2 just to be sure then try another fresh co2. By blasting compressed air that may also help to dislodge any dirt or dust or particles that also may be giving problems. Report back when done.
