it wont hurt your gun to keep it gasses up as long as you dont gas it and then degas it over and over.i wouldnt leave it gassed tho cause there is always a chance the gun could fire. SAFETY FIRST!!

It is ok to leave it gassed up. But, as spazspike said, it can wear down seals. Just get an on/off valve, they work very well.
Leaving the gas on during a day of play will let the gun be a little more consistent. If you turn it off and on and off and on again - it affects the springs and so forth.
However if you are talking about longer periods of time (a weekend, a week, a decade) Why bother?? Turn the gas off and save yourself some headaches later...

I have a nelspot pump that was gassed up for about fifteen years with a twelve gram. It still works fine, and all the seals stayed fine.

joeboss were you trying to ask if it's okay to leave the bottle on the gun when stored, or if you can leave the gas on the gun.......I certainly wouldn't want a gassed up marker sitting around my house night and day between days of play
