Information:
The .22 LR ammunition spectrum ranges from
very light loads for single loader guns to sport
load, utility load and on through to high speed
rounds. Unfortunately, however, it is not possible
to adjust a semi-automatic gun to all loads.
We have therefore decided to make an adjustment
to the loads that have priority for use with the
MOSQUITO, which are the two major groups,
utility and high-speed rounds. So to increase the
round compatibility, we provide two slide springs
for every pistol. The bigger bored version is
designed for high-speed loads and is fitted in the
pistol with delivery. The simple coiled smaller
spring (marked white) is for standard loads and is
supplied with the pistol.
Tip:
It has been proven that many types of utility
rounds function more smoothly if the rounds are
lightly oiled.

Loading the magazine
Procedure:
1. Place round on feeder close to the magazine
lips.
2. Push the side lock on the magazine down.
3. Only load the number of rounds that are to be
shot (max.10 rounds).
The number of inserted rounds can be determined
through the slot on the magazine.
WARNING!

•
Never oil high-speed rounds, as the
pistol can unbolt too quickly while
shooting.
