After pumping up my Air Force Texan, the pump when I turn the release valve, wants to drain the air from the gun. I cannot remove the hand pump from the gun because of the pressure. Anybody know the problem and or solution

I am not a pcp expert by no means.  However I did purchase a Crosman 1710 and a hand pump.  I shot it today as a matter of fact.  When I first got to pumping back when I purchased it new, mine would dump its air when releasing the drain valve.  Come to find out, I wasn’t doing it fast enough.  The check valve needs to slam shut quick apparently.  This might be your case?  I have added a couple drops of silicone oil to mine also since, and no further issues.
