How hard is it to load the gun?

It is very simple to load the weapon.. it takes about 6 pounds of pressure to cock it however it is a slow reload.. I would not suggest buying this gun. I have had cheaper weapons with better accuracy than this weapon.

easy. Effort to pull the barrel down to open it is moderate.easy access to the breech (rear of the barrel) to put the pellet in.

Not at all. It take some strength to cock the gun but my younger brother could do it at age 13

There have been a few small design changes and part changes (mostly wood and metal to plastic), but the Crosman 1322/1377 have been the same gun for at least 50 years. I don't personally find this gun difficult to load (and I even have big fingers). I hope this helps.

I don't think it is difficult to pump at all. If you pump more than 5 pumps it does get harder to pump, but I would think that is to be expected since you are building up more and more pressure. I find 4 or 5 pumps is plenty for target shooting, etc. It is a well designed pistol with good safety features. I really do like it and am glad I have it.

It loads well. But do suggest that you insert only the max of your magazine capacity, less three (3), in the bulk chamber. Load those last three by hand. If you overload more than the mag capacity the shell casings of the max round you loaded in the mag plus the one extra you can't load will be dimpled and not usable.

Not hard at all. In fact, I usually set it up one handed. I'll velcro it onto the cart once I get her in which is not an issue.

Make sure you press the button, the same button you used to insert the barrel. You do have to pull pretty hard.

My 12 year old grandson handled it quite well. It takes some strength and good technique to break the barrel (cock & load). It would be fine for target practice, but carrying it hunting will probably get tiring.

If I understand your question, I think you are asking if it is difficult to depress the trigger. If thats correct then it would depend on the relative strength of your hand. With that being said, I don't feel that that trigger pull is difficult at all. I am very please with the whole setup. I believe it is the best value out there.

Honestly not really. My 8 year old struggles with it. My 10 year old has no problems. It is a sturdy gun though and well made.

I have the TR77 nps and it's easy to load. You just have to break the neck to activate the nitrow piston. At the break of the barrel is the hole where the pellet fits. Hope this helped

No because its made for double stacked mags. If you have ever used .223 mags it builds alot of pressure the more bullets you feed in. On a .22 usually have a slider and can be done easily. I also have the colt .22 and yes it takes time to load them but it's pretty easy.

Gun is well balanced, but 14# if you are working over your head is tiring after an hour. Most of my work has been at chest level and the weight is not too bad. Given the gun's coverage, I doubt you would be working that long.

I keep my elbows locked and do my best to pull the string evenly on both side's of the rail. If shes any younger than say, 15-16 shell have a hard time with it. That's the easy part though. The real challenge is stringing the thing! 150 + lbs. of resistance on fiberglass limbs. Get a little scope and this thing is a blast. I love mine!

It is probably a little heavy. It is a great rifle so if you get it he will probably need to prop it on a blanket roll.

you have to be able to break the gun down. easy to install. check you tube for info on how to disassemble and reassemble.

These rifles are made for adults, so naturally it will be harder to cock than a regular toy gun. It is pretty difficult the first few times but it gets easier as you use it more. The hardest part is cracking the barrel; once you get past the bearing that locks everything in place its much easier. Plan on having a little difficulty until you get used to it.

No, it is not difficult to start. You hold the safe button down and squeeze the trigger.
