2. Operating the Safety
A. To Put the Airgun “ON SAFE:”
• Locate the safety directly in front of the trigger.
• Push the safety from the left side in (Fig. 2). The safety is not “ON SAFE” unless it
is pushed all the way in and the RED ring around the left side of the safety is NOT
showing.
Like all mechanical devices, an airgun safety can fail. Even when the safety is “ON
SAFE”, continue to handle the airgun safely. NEVER point the airgun at any person.
NEVER point the air gun at anything you do not intend to shoot.
B. To Take the Airgun “OFF SAFE”
• Push the safety from the right side in. When you can see the RED ring around the
left side of the safety, the airgun is “OFF SAFE” and can be fired.
3.Charging and Uncharging the Airgun
A. Pumping the Airgun
WARNING:
Always hold the forearm firmly when pumping forearm to prevent possible injury.
• Put the airgun “ON SAFE”. (See Step 2A)
• Point the airgun in a SAFE DIRECTION.
WARNING: Never pump your airgun more than 10 times. Over-pumping can cause ma-
jor damage to your airgun. Pumping more than 10 times may also leave a small amount of
air in the airgun after it is fired which may allow you to fire a second shot without additional
pumping.
• Open the forearm all the way until it stops (Fig. 3). Hold the forearm
firmly as you open it. Place your hands in the same positions shown in
Fig. 3 to avoid being pinched, should you lose hold of the forearm. Do
not twist the forearm while pumping. Use straight strokes to prevent
breakage.
• Pump at least 3 times, but no more than 10 times.
• Return the forearm to the original closed position with a smooth stroke.
Hold the forearm firmly as you close it.
B. Uncharging the Airgun (after reading all instructions in this manual
and following Section 5.)
• Always uncharge your airgun before handing it to another person, when
you are done shooting, and before storing.
To uncharge the airgun, cock and lock the bolt as if you were load-
ing a pellet, (see Section 4A) but, DO NOT load a pellet. Fire in a SAFE DIRECTION.
WARNING:
Use .177 (4.5 mm) caliber pellets only in your 1377. Use .22 (5.5 mm)
caliber pellets only in your 1322. Never reuse pellets. Use of any other ammunition can
cause injury to you or damage to the airgun.
Note: You must follow the procedure for pumping, loading and firing your airgun each time
you shoot.
4. Loading and Unloading/Firing Pellets
A. Loading Pellets
• Make sure the airgun is “ON SAFE.” (See Section 2A)
• Point the airgun in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Cock the bolt by pushing the bolt handle up and pulling the bolt all the way back. (Fig 4)
• With the bolt open, place one pellet, nose first, in to the loading port (breech). This is a
single shot airgun. Load no more than one pellet at a time.
• Lightly push the pellet into the barrel by moving the bolt to the full forward position.
• Close and lock the bolt by pushing the bolt handle forward and down until firm resistance is felt.
• Be sure the bolt is closed and locked before firing.
B. Unloading/Firing the Pellets (after fully reading the owner’s manual
and following Section 5 on aiming and firing safely.)
• The most common way to unload a pellet is to fire your airgun in a SAFE
DIRECTION.
C. Unloading/ Without Firing the Pellets
• Put your airgun “ON SAFE” (see Section 2A)
• Point the airgun in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Cock the bolt by pushing the handle up and pulling the bolt all the way
back until you hear two clicks. (Fig 4)
• With the bolt in the open position, insert a ramrod (sold separately) in to
the muzzle end of the barrel and gently push the jammed pellet in to the pellet loading port (forward of the bolt).
(Fig 5)
5. Aiming and Firing Safely
A. Aiming the Airgun
• Always point your airgun in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Follow the instructions for pumping (Section 3) and
loading pellets (Section 4A).
• You and others with you should always wear shooting
glasses to protect your eyes.
• Do not shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water.
The pellet may bounce off or ricochet and hit someone
or something you had not intended to hit.
• Always choose your target carefully. For example, shoot
at paper bulls-eye targets that are attached to a safe
backstop such as the Crosman 0850 Target Trap. A heavy
blanket should be hung behind the target trap to prevent ric-
ochet should you miss the backstop. Your airgun 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 airgun is correctly aimed when the front sight blade
is positioned exactly in the center of the notch of the rear
sight. The top of the front sight blade should be even with
the top of the notch in the rear sight. The bull’s-eye should
appear to rest on the top of the front sight. (Fig. 6A)
• When using the peep sight, the airgun is correctly aimed
when the front sight blade is positioned exactly in the center
of the peep of the rear sight. (Fig. 6B)
• When you are sure of your target and backstop, and the area around the target is clear, take the airgun “OFF
SAFE” (See section 2B) and pull the trigger to fire.
B. Sight Adjustment
• The rear sight is designed to use it as a notched sight or as a peep sight. To change from one to the other,
loosen and remove the elevation screw and turn the sight over. Replace the elevation screw to secure the sight.
• The rear sight may be adjusted to shoot higher or lower (elevation). Loosen the elevation adjustment screw by
turning it counterclockwise. Move the sight up to make the pellet hit higher on the target. Move the sight down to
make the pellet hit lower on the target. Then tighten the elevation adjustment screw by turning it clockwise. (Fig. 7)
• The rear sight may be adjusted to shoot right or left (windage). Loosen the windage adjustment screw by turning
it counterclockwise. Move the sight to the right to make the pellet hit to the right on the target. Move the sight
to the left to make the pellet hit to the left on the target. Then tighten the windage adjustment screw by turning it
clockwise. (Fig. 7)
6. Removing a Jammed Pellet
• Put your airgun “ON SAFE” (see Section 2A)
• Point the airgun in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Recock the action.
• With the bolt in the open position, insert a ramrod in to the muzzle end of the barrel and gently push the jammed
pellet in to the pellet loading port (forward of the bolt) (Fig 5).
• Do not reuse the pellet
• If you are not able to unjam your airgun by following the unloading procedure, take no further action. An Autho-
rized Service Station will unjam your airgun (at no cost during the warranty period).
7. Maintaining Your Airgun
• Before you attempt to oil your airgun, make sure the gun is unloaded and
air has been removed (see Section 4B.)
• Your airgun will maintain proper function longer if you oil it every 250
shots. Put 1 drop of Crosman 0241 Pellgunoil ® on the pump cup (fig 8A),
and pump lever (Fig. 8B & 8C).
• A light coat of Pellgunoil on the barrel helps prevent rust.
• DO NOT MODIFY OR ALTER YOUR AIRGUN. Attempts to modify the
airgun in any way inconsistent with this manual may make your airgun
unsafe to use, cause serious injury or death, and voids the warranty.
• If you drop your airgun, visually check to see that no damage has
occurred to the gun. If anything seems changed, like a shorter or weaker
trigger pull, this may mean worn out or broken parts. Call Crosman cus-
tomer service for assistance before using your airgun again.
8. Reviewing Safety
• Never point the airgun at any person or at anything you do not intend to shoot.
• Always treat the airgun as though it is loaded and with the same respect you would a firearm.
• Always aim in a SAFE DIRECTION. Always keep the muzzle of the airgun pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Always keep the airgun “ON SAFE” until you are ready to shoot.
• Always check to see if the airgun is “ON SAFE” and unloaded when getting it from another person or from storage.
• Always keep your finger off the trigger and out of the trigger guard until ready to shoot.
• You and others with you should always wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes.
• If your reading or prescription glasses are not safety glasses, Wear shooting glasses over your regular glasses.
• Use pellets only in your airgun. Never reuse ammunition.
• Do not shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water. The pellet may bounce off or ricochet and hit someone
or something you had not intended to hit.
• Place the backstop in a location that is safe should the backstop fail.
• Your backstop should be checked for wear before and after each use. All backstops are subject to wear and will
eventually fail. Replace your backstop if the surface is worn or damaged or if a ricochet occurs.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or tamper with your airgun. Use an Authorized Service Station. Using unauthor-
ized repair centers or modifying the function of your airgun in any way may be unsafe and voids your warranty.
• Before you store your airgun, make sure it is unloaded, not charged, and the airgun is “ON SAFE.”
