" ...  First, I checked all the screws on the gun for tightness . ... THE NAIL IN THE COFFIN: After the 18th shot, I broke the barrel to load/cock the gun, and the detent ball that holds the barrel closed came flying out and hit me in the shoulder!!  ...  "
comment
" ...  I happily own a Ruger pistol so I am very disappointed they put their name on this one.  ...  "
comment
" ...  In a wholly unchildlike way I broke the barrel and inserted the first .177 pellet. ... That's a single layer of "duct seal" bricks, on a 45 degree angle, so a pellet has 1.414" of clay before it even thinks about busting through 1.5" of plywood backing.  ...  "
