Is it alright to leave My air cylinder hooked up to My gun? It is not fully charged, it's a HW100 and I shoot it till it's down to the yellow and I don't pump it up till I'm ready to shoot again.

do you mean leave it hooked as you shoot? if so yeah as long as the pressure doesn't exceed the gun's fill pressure it's gonna suck walking around with it though.

No, I mean leave the air cylinder in the gun when I'm done shooting not leave the pump hooked up. I was just wondering if I should take it out of the gun are is it alright to leave it in.

Negatory, leave the air cylinder in the gun as much as possible. It's my understanding that some of the seals in a PCP are better left under some pressure from the air and the gun is designed to be left with the cylinder in place. I wouldn't ever remove it myself unless you were changing from an empty cylinder to a full one which I can only imagine would be necessary in a field/hunting situation."griffwar"No, I mean leave the air cylinder in the gun when I'm done shooting not leave the pump hooked up.

Besides most PCP's do not have removable bottle/tanks. I leave mine charged all the time. Their ready to go at a moments notice.
