I used to have rats in my back yard.. not anymore. This rifle may not be the most powerful on the market but 4 out of 5 hits kill the rats instantly. Could not be happierRuger Explorer

My sons first airgun. I could not be happier with how well it performs. My son is absolutely in love with his Ruger Explorer. If you are looking for a beginner spring-piston rifle, look no further. Rugers Explorer will make your young shooter more than happy.ruger explorer

Answer:
If your scope has the ability to mount to a dovetail system, it should be able to handle it. The box never said it had the dovetails but it does. I just got mine and am thinking about mounting my small daisy 4x target scope on it. Hope this helps! :) It really does seem to be a solid little rifle.By Conor from Sunnyside, WA on February 10, 2012

Answer:
this rifle is mainly meant as a childrens target practice gun. It is more of a toy. It can do plinking just fine but obviously, a more powerful and accurate gun would be better.By jean from ma on December 25, 2011

Answer:
Here is the easiest way cock and load the barrel properly, sit down and place the gun across your lap, with the barrel overhanging, hit the barrel near the front sight with the palm of your hand and it should open up. Now pull the barrel all the way down until it locks and the inner barrel is exposed, now that the inner barrel is exposed you can load your pellet, return the barrel to the closed position and you are ready to fire.Please keep in mind that some rifles have automatic safetys when cocking, also remember not to dry fire your rifle.
