Let's start out with the manual:
http://daisy.com/_manuals/880_web_manual.pdf
It states, "NOTE: Never pump more than 10 times. Over pumping
will cause serious damage to the gun."
So, have you made a habit of pumping it more then 10 times per shot?
It goes on to state, "To maintain top shooting performance, lightly oil the three pumping lever hinges and the foam wiper on the piston every
1,000 shots"
Rather then the lever hinges, I'm more onto the piston's foam wiper, as this might help the piston seal better.
It could also be a "cup seal", or "valve '0-rings'"
These help the piston seal also.
If needed, you can probably get replacement parts through these guys:
