hmm, check the macroline is in tight, check the end is flat, errm, what else can i think of...
check the threads are all smooth, use a paper towel to get the dust etc out.
errrm i read somewhere about putting some sort of lubrication (not sure if normal gun lube) on the threads BEHIND the o-ring
umm
i may be really wrong but just troubleshooting

Also it will be hard to unscrew your bottle from your PMR as it has a fixed pin valve unlike on/off valves.

What you need to do is to unscrew it so the pin in the bottle no longer is releasing gas, fire off the remaining gas in the marker/reg and this will purge the system leaving it easier to unscrew.
By far the easiest thing to do is to get an on/off asa to replace the existing one
