I just got in a new AA Prosport, unpacked it, loaded a pellet and quickly discovered that the safety is not engaging. It fired ok. I repeated the process several more times and still no functioning safety. Any suggestions other than sending it back.
Glad its working but sorry about your thumb. Sounds painfulWell I tried that and it started working, I had to do it several times, and probably got a little complacent and grasped around the forearm and my had slipped on the cocking lever and I managed to smash my thumb quite smartly. Looks like its going to be black and blue for a few days.
