Step 4. Loading and Unloading Pellets
A. Loading Pellets
Make sure the air pistol is "On Safe." (See Step 2A)
Point the air pistol in a SAFE DIRECTION.
Open the slide by pushing the release lever downward to the position shown in Figure 5A.
Remove the pellet clip and load the pellets head first (see Fig. 5B and 5C) into the clip insuring that
each pellet is completely inserted.
IMPORTANT: To avoid jams or deforming the pellets, make sure the pellet skirt is level or slightly below
the rim of the pellet chamber.
Place the pellet clip back in the pistol with the ratchet teeth facing rearward. (see Fig. 5C)
Grip the slide from the top (see Fig. 5D) and move it rearward to the closed position.
IMPORTANT: Never put any part of your hand over the muzzle; grip only the top and sides of the
slide.
Use only.177 (4.5mm) caliber pellets in your COLT GOVERNMENT 1911 and
1911 COMPENSATOR. Use of any other ammunition can cause injury to you or damage to the air pistol.
Never reuse pellets.
WARNING:
Never place your hand or fingers over the muzzle. When opening or closing the
slide make sure your air pistol is pointing in a SAFE DIRECTION, and keep your finger off the trigger.
Failure to follow these warnings may cause serious injury.
