first shot shootdown is due to a dry hammer rod

just take it out, and see if it is jammed in, if not, push on it lightly. if it gets jammes, then you RELLY need to celan it. just chuck it into a capful of achohol

look on the sides of your gun, right below the feedtube.. Those(if you have 2) bulges are the detents. use an allen key
