can you leave a co2 tank screwed in your gun for a few days or will that be bad

its safest not to just because if the tank gets to hot there's a small chance it can explode. Also, the co2 can freeze up your gun internals,and finally in less you have a perfectly sealed up gun you will leak you air.

wait are you talking about one of those little 12 grams
if your talking about the little cloud of co2 that comes out when you unscrew it that only represents 2 shots worth of co2.

you could buy a on/off that would help with co2 loss

The Co2 You are seeng leaking is already in the lines.... Im pretty sure. Also it helps get the tank off easier if you fire while your unscrewing the tank.
