Keep air in the gun at all times.
It is better for the seals!
Not so good for the walruses though!

You need to leave the air in the cylinder, preserves the seals I believe.

Yes, keep at least 100 Bar in a pcp if being stored, note the pressure and then you will know if it has a slow leak if the pressure has dropped when you next come to use it. Keeping 100+ Bar in them keeps the seals pressed in place, all seals harden with age and as a seal hardens it doesn't easily re-seal if it has been allowed to come away from the sealing faces due to loss of pressure or being stored with no pressure in.
