A shortlist of common issues…

  • Safety is on? Just when you think your beloved airgun is broken, you discover you’ve left your safety on. Quick, take a look around and make sure no one saw you. Actually, you might be forgiven as a lot of airguns have an automated safety that activates each time your gun is cocked.
  • Out of Air – Obviously not relevant to all guns, but if you have a PCP this is an important question. This is the equivalent of running out of gas on the highway but a little less traumatic. Make sure you remove the pellet and recharge your gun. Most will have a gauge on them anyway so you can tell quite quickly how much you have left.
  • Trigger-related – Any recent changes you’ve made (calibration or otherwise) to see if this resolves it.
