• You and others with you should always wear eye protec-

The plastic BBs may bounce off or ricochet and hit someone or something you had not intended to hit.

• Your soft air 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.
• Your soft air gun is correctly aimed when the front sight blade is position exactly in 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 bulls-eye should appear to rest on the top of the front sight (Fig. 8).
• When you are sure of your target and backstop, and the
area around the target is clear, load and cock the soft air
gun following sections 3 and 4. Take the soft air gun

may cause serious injury or death and will
void the warranty.
• If you drop your soft air pistol, visually check to see that
it works properly before you use it again. If anything
seems changed, like a shorter or weaker trigger pull, this
may mean parts are worn out or broken.
