H<strong>and</strong>lingInformation:The .22 LR ammunition spectrum ranges fromvery light loads for single loader guns to sportload, utility load <strong>and</strong> on through to high speedrounds. Unfortunately, however, it is not possibleto adjust a semi-automatic gun to all loads.We have therefore decided to make an adjustmentto the loads that have priority for use with theMOSQUITO, which are the two major groups,utility <strong>and</strong> high-speed rounds. So to increase theround compatibility, we provide two slide springsfor every pistol. The bigger bored version isdesigned for high-speed loads <strong>and</strong> is fitted in thepistol with delivery. The simple coiled smallerspring (marked white) is for st<strong>and</strong>ard loads <strong>and</strong> issupplied with the pistol.Tip:It has been proven that many types of utilityrounds function more smoothly if the rounds arelightly oiled.6.3 Loading the magazineProcedure:1. Place round on feeder close to the magazinelips.2. Push the side lock on the magazine down.3. Only load the number of rounds that are to beshot (max.10 rounds).The number of inserted rounds can be determinedthrough the slot on the magazine.<strong>WARNING</strong>!Uncontrolled shot dischargePossibly death or serious injuries• Never oil high-speed rounds, as thepistol can unbolt too quickly whileshooting.9 US 06.01
