Maybe defective?
I purchased this pistol a few years back and have tried to make it work correctly a handful of times. The bbs just fall out of the magazine into the handle and then they jam up and it won’t shoot, when I attempt to remove the magazine it won’t release because all the bbs have jammed the mechanism. When it shoots, it’s decent, but it is extremely cheap feeling and does not compare to the quality I’d expect from this particular manufacturer, from past experiences that is. Oh well, lesson learned I suppose or maybe not. I am giving the manufacturer another shot by purchasing a rifle for my daughter for Christmas, hoping it works out and I’ll write this pistol none-sense off as defective out the box. No need to try and return or exchange, life’s too short and I don’t expect much based on the quality control. I’m just sharing my experience in the attempt to explain why I rated the product so poorly, based on my own personal experience. Hopefully the rifle does not disappoint as this pistol has, as it has been far from impressive. Oh, and my old pistol by the same maker will hold the co2 pressure for years, literally. I can pick it up off the top of my television stand walk outside and pop off ten shots at any point, will not lose pressure. With this new, cheaply made, co2 pistol I can count on losing all co2 charge overnight. I’ve never actually been able to shoot enough bbs consistently without it getting all jammed up to use up a whole co2 cartridge, but it’ll just all leak out and there’s nothing I can do about it.
