FX .22 caliber Tarantula leak question

[smcowboy]

My tarantula developed a leak for the air gauge. I fixed that and tried filling after I had cocked the gun.

It is now leaking out of the screw towards the front of the forearm that holds the stock on the receiver????

IS there a reason for this. Supposed to be an oring under the stock screw?

Any help or info would be Greatly appreciated. 

Do not want to send in to get fixed unless I absolutely have to.

Got the gun used years ago from AOA who resealed it before they shipped it to me. 

Who would be a good person to fix the gun for me if it comes to that?

Thank you to all who reply.

Likely in the airtube by the valve assembly. Sounds like it's time to replace all of your seals.... they eventually all get hard and brittle.

Before I got the gun about 2-3 years ago it was all gone through. Who would be the best to send it to for a full service? Thank you for the download links.

Regarding your original question: the stock screw doesn't enter the air chamber. It cannot be the leak. But in my case, similar, the leak was coming from the breach area, specifically the main valve. You will need to remove the rifle from the stock to investigate.
