Recommendation for the IZH-46's....

[JoeG]

When finished shooting and before putting the gun away you should release the pressure on the breech cover so that it is not in a closed position. This will help prevent the breech cover seals from developing a set. A pointer that came from a review of the IZH by Tom Gaylord in a 1997 issue of his Airgun Letter publication. Joe G.

This is something I do every time I am done with my IZH.

I do the same. And, once in a while I make sure the grip is tight to the frame and that the little pad on the cocking lever is also snugged up. Not much else to go wrong ....except with the shooter.
