I just got my M3 last week, went out today to sight it in. After about 10 rounds air was constantly leaking out through the barrel. I contacted FX USA but they never called me back today. Any ideas where I should look while waiting for them to return my call? Thanks.
Tuning Impact M3 leaking air out the barrel.

I did try dry firing a few times, but didn't make a difference. I pulled the tank off so it didn't run completely empty. Air was coming out of the regulator when I pulled the tank off, I don't know if that's normal or not.

Could be the valve seat or valve seat O-ring. Breach O-ring for the regulator. Or other O-rings others will chime in with.
Let me know what O-ring it is and if I have it (many) I will send you a couple.

Today I disassembled the entire gun, inspected, cleaned and re-lubed all the orings. I didn't see anything obvious. I put it all back together and reattached the tank. It immediately started leaking out of the barrel again. I dry fired it a few times and it slowly stopped leaking. I took it to my brothers to top off the tank and everything was holding fine. When I got home and opened the case it was leaking again. I dry fired it several times again and now it seems to be holding. I never did hear back from FX.
