So my hand pump came with a fill whip and so did my SCBA tank from AoA. Both whips do like what just happened as I was trying to fill my Marauder pistol just now.
1. Seem to be attached securely to the pistol, as in I cannot readily pull them off.
2. Let air through to the tank to and beyond the point I hear the "click" that I understand means the pressure in the hose is strong enough to open the valve to the pistol's air chamber and start filling it.
3. At some point fairly soon thereafter, air starts leaking out of the hose and the gun can fill up no further.
P.S.: My rifle's bolt is pulled back.
So ... I'm figuring it must be me ... but it seems such a simple thing I don't know how I'm screwing it up. If the fitting was flying off, or if the gun was not taking air at all, obviously I didn't attach the hose properly. But those two things aren't happening.
And this didn't always happen either. I have successfully pumped and tank-filled the pistol to its normal 3k limit before.
Ideas on what I might be doing wrong?
