Same thing happened to mine.I took it apart and inside the bottle fill there is a air check valve that needs to be tightened up. Part number 50 on the EA manual, it is a small check valve with a pointy tip and a o-ring attached to it with the spring. Remove all the air which it seems you have done due to the leak and you have to disassemble the air tank. Remove the air tank set screw and the air gauge. You’ll have to unscrew the top part of the fill adapter from the actual tank in order to get to the air check valve. You have come in from the bottom side with the small Allen wrench to tighten it up. Don’t tighten it all the way otherwise you won’t be able to put air in you might have to do this a couple of times. Good luck. Check out sigshooter videos for AEA guns.
I appreciate the info and I actually tried that at the suggestion of another dealer. I snugged it up and it still leaked. I checked the little o-ring and it was fine. I went ahead and tightened it up a little more and it just stopped accepting any air (as you mentioned) at all. I sent off to Sig Friday and now I have my fingers crossed. After having to send it back twice now, I almost just want to trade to a different type of AEA rifle altogether.
🎉🎉🎉 love the videos keep it up ❤

Please keep us up to date to what the conclusion is.
That's too bad.
Waiting for a call from Jason from AEA right now.
That’s disturbing.
