Does it take allot of force to cock back the slide?

It has a tight spring and this is why it shoots far and is very accurate. It does take some force to cock it, but I do not know how to measure it.

For a fully functional male adult, no.But for my 6 year old nephew, he couldn't come close. (was just letting him target practice under supervision)It takes a decent amount of force, but should be no issue for a teen and up. Cocking the slide over and over again doesn't tire me out at all.

Yes! My husband says it's not too bad as long as you aren't weak. I can do it, but my 7YO son could not. Really glad I also got a cheap Crossman pistol for him so he can actually shoot. UPDATE: It is much easier to grip the front of the slide as the manufacturer or someone suggested in the product description. I didn't see that earlier. For some reason the slide doesn't always complete it's movement when I cock the pistol, but it never gives my husband trouble. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or just weak.

No its easy with using the proper punch in order to hold down the rear slide pin. You can watch it on line there are several videos out showing how to install, takes about 5 minutes to do.

Yes. Once the slide gets worked in. That took about one magazine of BB's. It fires as fast as you can pull the trigger.

No, You have to move the slide to the off position & then put it bact to the high or low position. It blares for about 30 second & the you have to reset it. Hope this info helps.

Yes it does that's how it is able to push itself back so you can shoot without having to continuously cock it back

I haven't noticed anyone having trouble sliding...it is not really fast but enough to have fun. The kids seem to enjoy it.

Not at all very smooth cocking function for this toy, also I shot a lot out of it and only had it jam once but it was an easy fix.

It's not hard really at all. Just takes a few times doing it to get the hang of it because you need to pull it back towards you then slightly raise it to get it going down.

Yes. You have to pull back on the top of the gun for each shot. I think all of the basic splatmaster models require manually cocking for each shot.

Not very easy. experiencing a good amount of stiffness, needs to be flicked hard.

Yes. Each time u rack the slide it chambers another round and sets the spring.

No, you can pull back the slide, it has a magazine release but the hammer does not move.

You have to cock the slide back each time you would like to shoot the gun. It is spring operated so it is not semi automated.

The cocking mechanism might be too hard for him. They do include a tool to make it easier (it acts kind of like a pully so it multiplies your force) but it depends upon how strong he is. If he's on the small side it might be a problem.

No. The "slide" is decorative only. It does not move. The trigger is double action. The first part of the stroke "cocks" the mechanism.

No. You have to push it. But it's not hard. It's light weight and very effective.

Yes u can, u can even disassemble it and lock put the gun on safety while the slide is pulled back, it only sucks that it's not blowback
