After pulling the slide back to cock the gun, I have a hard time pushing it forward. Is there a solution to this problem?

Pull it out til it clicks, it takes some Humph, point the pistol to the ground & with a tight grip, push the leaver in with a quick humph, it will lock, use some silicon oil on the slide awhile it in the open position, its new and needs to be brokenIn, alote of bb guns are that way, some times they'll have heavy or hard triggers? The more you use it! It'll break in & you'll get used to cocking it.

maybe the slide is not going back far enough. It really takes a lot of muscle to get it all the way back. We finally gave up on it and gave it to our son, who is stronger than either my husband or I. Unfortunately we diddled around with it until it was too late to return it.

You shouldn't have to. First release the slide lock just above the hand grip on the left-hand side of the pistol and pull the slide back. At this point you can open the BB loading port but if you do push the slide back into place make sure the safety is pressed in so that it's showing on the right hand side of the hand grip. With the slide cocked or in the pulled-back position, push the "button" just below the barrel at the front of the pistol and the loading port will open. Load BBs in the square upper opening and then lower the port. The pistol came with a BB loading tube; I got a used one without the tube so I either load one-by-one by hand or with the funnel-top BB jar.

I have snipe on the leading edge, start with a scrap piece the same thickness and push the good piece right behind it. This fixed my problem.

Check to make sure that the little switch for choosing forward or reverse isn't stuck right in the middle (the switch is right by the trigger. If it's right in the middle you won't be able to push the trigger.

I didn't have this problem. I think you have to slam the cartridge in firmly and get it into the handle quickly. I hope this helps, but your problem may be with a defective pistol. Perhaps you should try the manufacturer.

mine does the same thing after every 5 shots or so, then I got to release the slide to slide it again. I think it has something to do with the little latch on the side, hopefully someone will give us a definite answer.

Slide the colored part forward and then lift up. I couldn't get it either! Then my fiance did it first try

It could be that the staples are too long. If that is not the case then when you are closing the slide squeeze the slide release down by your pinky finger move the slide into closed position and then release

I also had a problem with the rail that was related to the quick release. You need to ensure the screw and nut combination is set right to get a good solid bite on the rail. Play around with it till you get a secure fit.

You cock it back by pulling the slide back. It's not hard for a kid who's at least 9. Our trigger mechanism broke in less than 2 days. I would say not to expect much more than looks.....

1) Remove magazine, 2) Pull down trigger guard (It auto cocks off to the side.) 3) Release safety, 4) Cock hammer, 5) Insert barrel into slide (Mine has a small metal plate that drops out, but can only go in one way.), 6) Pull the slide all the way back while raising it up at an angle, 7) Press the slide down and push it forward, 8) Release trigger guard, 9) Pull trigger to release hammer, 10) Re-engage safety, 11) Reload magazine.

Extend the inner slide and look for a small plastic lever which can be depressed to release the inner slide from the main body.It looks like a pointer...

I had problems getting mine to slide up. It was a struggle. Once I got it opened, it did click.

You have to cock the slide back each time you would like to shoot the gun. It is spring operated so it is not semi automated.

Once you cock it with under lever, chamber opens on top. Wont fire until chamber closed again. Pulling trigger with chamber open wont slam chamber closed

Try putting it in upside down from the way the instructions say I put it the way it said at first and it would slide out from bottom, but I flipped and now it's great, and it will need a nice hard push for it to click so don't be afraid, but don't exaggerate on the force to get it to click.

I had the same problem. What I found was it has to be perfectly straight in line and go slow. If I went to fast I had to use another drill to drive the screws all the way in. Also the drill bit does not always stay locked into place on mine.
