I purchased this Taipan Veteran Long recently, but had not had time to shoot it until last evening. The cylinder was charged to 250 bar I loaded up a magazine was about to give a go at 10 yards to begin scope dial in. I attempted to retract cocking lever to insert magazine and the cocking lever would not fully retract. It felt as if there was a big spring holding it back from full reward travel. The magazine center pin retracted as it should, but the pellet insertion pin was not coming back far enough to insert the magazine. What could cause this to bind like this?
