,,, I took it apart multiple times to try and figure out whats going on and everything seems ok without any worn out or missing parts i'm confused , i was also looking if maybe it has an integrated check valve or something that would prevent the air from pushing back on the handle and keeping pressure gauge readings but to no avail !?

All n' all with this done it works 50% better now so i'm almost there , sometimes works very best with accurate gauge reading and other times it feels like it sticks when the handle hits the bottom and then springs right back up again by itself !
Still think the first part of your OP is correct? :-)
