1. Learning the Parts of Your New Airgun.
Learning the names of the parts of your new airgun will help you to understand your owner's manual. Use this manual to
increase your enjoyment of this airgun.
2.Operating the Safety
2.1 To Put the Airgun "ON SAFE":
• Locate the safety in front of the trigger. Push the safety towards the trigger to put the safety on. The safety is on, and
the airgun is "ON SAFE" when the lever is in the rear position (near the trigger). (Fig. 2)
• The letters "F" (fire) and "S" (safe) on the bottom of the trigger guard also indicate the appropriate position of the
safety.
Even when the safety is on, you should continue to handle the airgun safely. Don't point the gun at anything you don't
intend to shoot.
Like all mechanical devices, an airgun safety can fail. Even when the safety is "ON SAFE", you should continue to
handle the airgun safely.
NEVER point the airgun at any
person. NEVER point the
airgun at anything you do not
intend to shoot.
2.2 To Take the Airgun "OFF
SAFE":
• Push the safety to the forward
position (away from the trigger).
When the airgun is "OFF SAFE"
it is ready to be fired. (Fig. 2)
CAUTION: Do not fire your airgun without a pellet in the chamber (dry fire). This may permanently damage your airgun.
3. Adjusting the Trigger
• This airgun is supplied with a trigger with an adjusting screw for adjustment
of the second stage length
NOTE: This feature is added for advanced shooters. Most shooters can use
the settings provided during manufacturing of the gun, and should not need to
make any modifications.
• Be sure the air rifle is "ON SAFE", unloaded and not cocked.
• To reduce the second stage length, rotate the screw clockwise.
• To increase the second stage length, rotate the screw counterclockwise.
4. Cocking and Loading Your Airgun
4.1 Cocking Your Airgun
Do not cock your airgun until you are ready to load and fire, since the only way to uncock your airgun is to fire it. Firing
your gun without a pellet in the chamber (dry firing) may cause damage to your airgun.
• Put the airgun "ON SAFE" (SECTION 2).
• Point the airgun in a safe direction.
• Grasp the airgun by the airgun grip with one hand and place your other hand around the barrel.
• Pull the barrel downward until it stops (Fig. 4A). Do not pull past this point and do not use excessive force or speed
when cocking your airgun.
• Some find it easier to cock the airgun when bracing the butt of the airgun against your leg (Fig. 4B).
• Be careful not to pinch your hand or fingers in the hinge area of the airgun.
4.2 Loading Your Airgun
• With the barrel in the open position, after it has been cocked, place one pellet, nose forward, into the breech (Fig. 5).
Make sure that the skirt of the pellet is flush with face of breech.
• Move the barrel back to its original position by pushing the barrel up until it locks (Fig. 6). Once again, be careful not
to pinch your hands or fingers. Be sure the airgun is "ON SAFE" and pointed in a safe direction.
YOU AND OTHERS WITH YOU SHOULD ALWAYS WEAR SHOOTING GLASSES TO PROTECT YOUR EYES.

4.3 Unloading Your Airgun
Do not cock and load your airgun until you are ready to shoot since the only way to decock your airgun is to fire it in a
safe direction. REMEMBER, choose your targets carefully and be sure that the area around the target is clear. THINK
what you will hit if you miss the target! Do not store your gun cocked or loaded.
CAUTION: Use .177 caliber pellets only in your C5M77. Never reuse ammunition. Use of any other ammunition can
cause injury to you or damage to the airgun.
5. Aiming and Firing Safely
5.1 Aiming and Firing the Airgun
• You and others with you should always wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes.
• Always aim your airgun in a SAFE DIRECTION.
When you are sure of your target and backstop, and the area around
the target is clear, take the airgun "OFF SAFE" (See section 2.2) and pull the trigger to fire.
• Do not shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water. The pellet may bounce off or ricochet and hit someone or
something you had not intended to hit.
• Always choose your target carefully. It is best to shoot at paper bull's-eye targets which are attached to a safe
backstop. A heavy blanket should be hung behind the backstop to prevent ricochet should you miss the backstop.
• Your backstop should be checked for wear before and after each use. Replace your backstop if the surface is worn or
damaged or if a ricochet occurs.
• Your airgun is designed for target shooting.
Always remember to place your target carefully.
THINK about what you will hit if you miss the
target.
• The airgun is correctly aimed when the front
sight is positioned exactly in the notch of the
rear sight. The top of the front sight blade
should be even with the top of the notch in the
rear sight. The bull's-eye should appear to rest
on the top of the front sight (Fig. 7).
5.2 Sight Adjustment
Your airgun is equipped with a rear sight that is
adjustable for both elevation (up or down) and windage (left or right).
• Elevation is set by means of the rear sight-elevating dial situated on the rear sight
base. Turn the dial counterclockwise to make the pellet hit higher on the target
and turn the dial clockwise to make the pellet hit lower on the target. (Fig. 8)
• Windage is set by turning the windage dial located on the right side of the sight.
Turn the dial counterclockwise to make the pellet hit to the left on the target and
turn the dial clockwise to make the pellet hit to the right on the target. (Fig. 8)
6. Removing a Jammed Pellet
• Put your airgun "ON SAFE" (Section 2).
• Do not reload the airgun if a pellet is jammed.
• Break the barrel open slightly (without pulling the barrel all the way down to the
point that it cocks the action) and look down the breech to see if the gun is
jammed.
• If it is jammed, insert a cleaning rod into the breech and push the
jammed pellet out of the muzzle. Don't try to reuse that pellet (Fig.
9)
CAUTION: Do not cock the airgun during the removal of a jammed
pellet unless you plan on continuing to shoot.
• Remember; do not fire your airgun without a pellet in the chamber
(dry fire). This may permanently damage your airgun.
• Do not leave the airgun cocked. This will weaken the main spring
and cause damage to your airgun.
• If you are not able to unjam your airgun by following the unloading
procedure, take no further action. An Authorized Service Station will
unjam your airgun (no cost during the warranty period).
6. Maintaining Your Airgun
• To ensure that your air rifle maintains uniform power, it is important that you apply a drop of Crosman RMCOIL every
few hundred shots into the compression chamber. (Fig. 10) The external metal parts
should be cleaned with a cloth that has RMCOIL on it.
CAUTION: Use Crosman RMCOIL only and do not over-oil. To do so can cause
possible damage to the gun and injury to the shooter and bystanders.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to disassemble your airgun.
DO NOT MODIFY OR ALTER YOUR AIRGUN. Attempts to modify the airgun in any
way inconsistent with this manual may make your airgun unsafe to use, cause
serious injury or death, and will void the warranty.
If you drop your airgun, visually check to see that it works properly before you use it
again. If anything seems changed, like a shorter or weaker trigger pull, this may
mean worn out or broken parts. Call Crosman customer service for assistance
before using your airgun again.
7. Reviewing Safety
• Never point the airgun at any person or at anything you do not intend to shoot.
• Always treat the airgun as though it is loaded and with the same respect you would a
firearm.
• Always aim in a SAFE DIRECTION. Always keep the muzzle of the airgun pointed in a SAFE DIRECTION.
• Always keep the airgun on safe until you are ready to shoot.
• Always check to see if the airgun is "ON SAFE" and unloaded when getting it from another person or from storage.
• Always keep your finger off the trigger and out of the trigger guard until ready to shoot.
• You and others with you should always wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes.
• If your reading or prescription glasses are not safety glasses, make sure you wear shooting glasses over your regular
glasses.
• Use the proper size pellet for your airgun, .177 caliber (4.5 mm) pellet for the C5M77.
• Never reuse ammunition.
• Do not shoot at hard surfaces or at the surface of water. The pellet may bounce off or ricochet and hit someone or
something you had not intended to hit.
• Place the backstop in a location that will be safe should the backstop fail.
• Your backstop should be checked for wear before and after each use. All backstops are subject to wear and will
eventually fail. Replace your backstop if the surface is worn or damaged or if a ricochet occurs.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or tamper with your airgun. Use an Authorized Service Station. Using unauthorized
repair centers or modifying the function of your airgun in any way may be unsafe and will void your warranty.
• Always keep your CrosBlock® trigger block in place when storing this airgun. Store airgun in a secure location. (See
CrosBlock instructions packaged with this airgun for assistance)
• Before you store your airgun, make sure that it is unloaded, not cocked, and that the airgun is "On Safe."
