"DO NOT COCK YOUR AIR RIFLE UNTIL YOU ARE READY TO LOAD AND FIRE" I broke this rule. Now what? (Fury II Blackout)

I never did that, but what Earic B. answered makes sense. As he said, point it up, not down.

I would advise that you go to a safe place outside, load a pellet into the rifle, close the barrel and fire the rifle into the air, or in a safe direction.Do not dry fire your rifle. This could cause serious damage to the rifle.

If loaded or not aim at something near and safe and pull the trigger. At soft earth for example.

Once, point barrel at ground, pull trigger. Remove pellet case from rifle, work bolt foward and back and lock down

I recently spent about 1.5 hrs practicing on range. Tactical reloads while shooting course of fire required for my position. No issues. Unless you're gripping the magazine from front to back, not sure how this would interfere? I just assume most people grab side to side if your magazine doesn't drop when released. Hope this helps!

Look up artillery hold, make sure all scope mounts are tight. Use a heavier pellet like Kodiaks Chances are its how your shooting. Can't use a test with Springers

fold the barrel down , insert proper projectile, close barrel. It is ready to fire. There was no safety on the one I purchased, Be very careful.

By your question, it seems that you are new to reloading. The best thing you can do is to read your owners manual and published loading data before attempting to load any ammunition. These two sources along with the information provided with the selected dies sets will keep you both safe and happy.

I just watched a video review. The answer is yes. Just make sure that you unload your gun first.... and I do not know how often it's wise to dry-fire your gun. With some it's OK... with others, it's not recommended.

I'm sorry. We are happy with the air rifle and don't want another one, so I can't help you. If others suggest getting "another",I would ask "them" what they recommend. Thanks.

U would have to turn the blaster off and then on. Which when u first turn them on, it has a 10 second beeping sync time. "Reloading" has nothing to do with your sheilds power, or lack of.

Dry fire, testing , .. Practice dry firing with out damaging firing pin. Test your slide ejector. Have a friend load a couple of snap caps in a mag with live ammo...then at the range ..you can practice a misfire & how to safely clear it .

with or without the scope? If it was with the scope then check the tightness of the pivot fit/cocking barrel. Check the ammo, is it misshapen? Not balanced?

You have to cock it each time. The one i ordered did not work plastic pellets jamed in barrel every time i trried to fire it.

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).

I don't have either of those air guns so I can't make the comparison. As someone pointed out after my original review, you should not dry-fire the RWS Model 34 because it will eventually damage it. It's loud when dry fired. When shooting a pellet, it's about as loud as a hand-held, manual staple gun (not a pneumatic stapler - just the one you squeeze with your hand like the Arrow staple gun that takes T50 staples).

Break-barrel Air Rifles are all one-pump action rifles, I believe. A friend of mine has this exact Ruger Air Magnum .177 and you can only cock it one time.

Yes...don't shoot this gun on 6 round burst for a long time. The mechanism freezes, and gun won't fire. Have en fun!!
