My GSSW just quit cocking when I broke the barrel down to load another pellet. How can I fix that?

I would check to make sure there is not a pellet jammed or a piece smashed in the barrel break. otherwise i have no other suggestions but to call gamo.The gun may already be cocked, so just dry fire it once and see. I have never had this problem. good luck

Mine was just out of warranty when this happened and I had to send it back and pay for the repair. The rear sight was broken when I got it back.

This is a single pump break barrel design. The barrel requires about 30lbs of pressure to cock the rifle.

If it is like that, it is a defect.It should an automatic pistol, so the slide only stop when all the BBs are shot out. It is also a single shot pistol, but kind of only for the first shot. After the first shot, the cock will always in down position for the next shot, no need manual cocking.After all, this is my favorite air metal BB pistol, thoush the accuracy is not adjustible in this model......

Two possibilities: first, a bb may be jammed. second, the spring in the magazine may be weak. My advice is to call Umarex. I have found their technical staff to be useful resources.

The only way to find out the problem is to take it apart. It's probably a problem in the piston area. So your going to want to take a look at the piston, piston spring, and piston chamber. Also make sure that the seal is still good around the barrel and the hop-up and the piston nozzle.

There is a little switch underneath the hatch where the BBs are loaded. Check to see if that switch was accidentally turned to 'off'. If that doesn't work, there may be a jam in the gun mechanism and you may have to carefully take the tank apart to reach the gun.

This is a single shot, bolt action pellet pistol so one shot then you have to pull the bolt back to cock and load the pistol. You could in theory stuff in more pellets but doing so could cause failures in the pistol as the pellets could become stuck in the barrel and create excess back pressure making seals fail and leak CO2.

Try using the gun in single action because the trigger pull is significantly lighter. You could also try mounting a laser sight.

You have to be rough when you cock it. Otherwise, it gets jammed most of the time. The problem is that when you cock it, if you do it lightly, the gun thinks that it needs another bullet to fire. Thusly, smooshing one bullet into another. Also, if the gun isn't roughly cocked, then you'll notice that the cocking lever will not return to it's natural state (towards the front of the gun) until the bullet is removed or sometimes you can roughly recock it and it'll unjam (doing that risks smooshing the next bullet).

Is the rifle new? The reason I ask that is because if someone else owned it they might have put in a longer trigger adjustment screw and if you turn that to far clockwise it will cause the rifle not to cock because it will not let the sear make contact with the trigger. Just for the heck of it screw the trigger adjusting screw out counter clockwise. remember how man turns you made so if that is not it you can put it back like it was. Dutch

Higher end pellets tend to reduce this problem. Make sure battery is fully charged. I always spray a quick shot of wd40 into my clips when I first get them. If this doesn't help than the problem is likely in the gears. For that you'll probably find it easiest to return the item

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

Check the plunger to see if it is on correct. I went crazy trying to figure out why mine was only working half the time after a cartridge change. I finally noticed that the plunger did not look even so i used a screwdriver to move it back into position. This only worked temporarily before it would get out of position again. I am VERY disappointed with this gun. I have been using a $10 workforce that has seen far more use without problem.

If this happens take out the magazine point the gun with the barrel up slightly and the mag well down and use the unjamming rod to try to dislodge the bbs out of the barrel. after a few tries you should be ready to shoot again. and plz note when the gun is jammed it has a diffrent sound

I have been shooting mine with a 1100 fps pellet gun. It makes a noise and swings some, but doesn't make it swing up all the way requiring a shot to reset.
