No kidding. RS, the loading gate pops open all by itself when the cocking handle is fully extended in front of the muzzle. No kidding.

When the cocking handle reaches the limit of its travel, the bolt will pop open. Next, return the cocking handle to its original position. This pressurizes the action." You missed the step where the shooter raises the "loading gate" to "cock" the action. Yours' doesn't include that… which means the pistol will NOT be charged as the lever will close w/o "storing" the air. rs Amused by your description of the loading procedure…
