aged, or if a ricochet occurs.
• ALWAYS use the proper size BB in your AIRSOFT GUN. Check the markings on your AIRSOFT GUN to verify the BB size is 6mm.

3. Operating The Safety
A. To Put the Airsoft Gun “ON SAFE:”
• Locate the safety on the left side of the airsoft gun.
• Turn the safety lever to “SAFE” for “ON SAFE. (Fig 2A). The safety is not “ON SAFE” unless it is pointing to “SAFE”. keep the airsoft gun in the “ON SAFE” position until you are actu-
ally ready to shoot. Then turn the safety to the “OFF SAFE” position.
Like all mechanical devices, an airsoft gun safety can fail. Even when the safety is “ON SAFE”, you should continue to handle the airsoft gun safely.
B. To Take the Airsoft Gun “OFF SAFE”
NOTE:
This airsoft gun fires in semi or full auto-mode. Full auto means it will continue to fire plastic BBs as long as you hold the trigger. Semi-auto means you will have to pull the trigger
each time you want to fire a shot.
• Locate the safety on the left side of the receiver. (Fig. 2a)
• Turn the lever to “SEMI” for semi-auto mode. (Fig. 2b)
• Turn the lever to “AUTO” for full auto mode. (Fig. 2c)
• The airsoft gun is “OFF SAFE” and ready to fire when pointing to either “semi” or “auto.”
NEVER
point the airsoft gun at any person.
NEVER
point the airsoft gun at anything you do not intend to shoot.
4. Charging, Loading and Removing the Battery
A. Charging the Battery
NOTE:
The battery charging time is 4-6 hours prior to initial use. To prolong battery life and maintain the best shooting performance rest the gun for 5-10 minutes after firing about 500
rounds. For optimum performance completely use up the battery before recharging. DO NOT OVERCHARGE THE BATTERY. UNPLUG THE BATTERY CHARGER WHEN NOT IN USE.

5. Loading and Unloading Plastic BBS
A. Loading
Only use 6 mm plastic BBs in this airsoft gun. Use of any other ammunition can cause injury to you or damage to the airsoft gun. We recommend
using Crosman, Duty Calls, or GameFace BBs. Use of any other ammunition can cause injury to you or damage to the airsoft gun.
MAkE SURE THE AIRSOFT GUN IS “ON SAFE” (SECTION 3A).
• Point the airsoft gun in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• While supporting the BB magazine, push the magazine release button and
remove the magazine.
• Flip open the magazine cap door.
• Insert 6 mm plastic BBs.
• Close the magazine cap door.
• Insert the loaded magazine back into the airsoft gun.
• Rotate the wind up wheel to draw plastic BBs up into the ready tube. Wind the
wheel 50 to 75 turns for optimum performance.
NOTE:
IT IS IMPORTANT TO PUT THE MAGAZINE IN THE GUN PRIOR TO WINDING TO HELP
AVOID JAMS. Winding before putting into the gun can cause a jam.
B. Unloading Plastic BBs
• Make sure the airsoft gun is “ON SAFE” (section 3A).
• Point the airsoft gun in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• While supporting the BB magazine, push the magazine release lever forward and remove the magazine.
• Flip open the loading door behind the ready tube
• Pour out BBs.
• To release the BBs in the ready tube, point the clip down in a safe direction and push back and hold the BB retainer button.
NOTE:
BBs will release rapidly.
• Rotate the wind up wheel to draw BBs into the ready tube.
• Repeat the above steps until all the BBs are out of the magazine.
• Close the magazine cap.
Never assume that because the airsoft gun no longer fires a BB and/or the loading chamber is removed, that a BB is not lodged in the barrel. Always treat the airsoft gun as though it is
loaded and with the same respect you would a firearm.
EVEN THOUGH YOU GO THROUGH THE UNLOADING PROCEDURE, CONTINUE TO TREAT THE AIRSOFT GUN AS THOUGH IT WERE
LOADED. DO NOT POINT AT ANYTHING YOU DO NOT INTEND TO SHOOT.
6. Using the Hop-Up Mode
Your airsoft gun is manufactured with an adjustable hop-up system. The purpose of this system is to change the spin on the BB as it leaves the muzzle, allowing you to adapt your shot
for different distances.
• Pull out and hold the charging handle to open the ejection port cover.
• Move the hop-up adjustment right for more spin, and left for less spin.
7. Adjusting the Stock
• Your airsoft gun is shipped with the stock in the closed position and is capable of adjusting to different lengths.
• Before adjusting the stock make sure your airsoft gun is “ON SAFE”, (see section 2A) and pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Push the stock release lever and adjust the stock until it locks into the desired position.
8. Firing Safely And Adjusting the Sights
A. Firing Safely

• Do not shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water. The plastic BBs may bounce off or ricochet and hit someone or something you had not intended to hit.
• DO NOT re-use plastic BBs because they could possibly cause damage to your airsoft gun.
• Your airsoft gun is designed for target shooting and is suited for both indoor and outdoor use. Always remember to place your target carefully. THINk about what you will hit if
you miss the target.

the trigger to fire.
9. Maintaining Your Airsoft Gun
• DO NOT MODIFY OR ALTER YOUR AIRSOFT GUN. Attempts to modify the
airsoft gun in any way inconsistent with this manual may make your airsoft
gun unsafe to use, cause serious injury, especially to the eye and will void
the warranty.
• If you drop your airsoft gun, visually check to see that it works properly before you use it again.
