Looking at it, does the ring (presumably attached to the piston?) move back into the stock area, and stay there until the trigger is pulled.....or is it a bicycle pump type........nice though!
Yes thats exactly how you cock it, just pull back on the ring and the trigger sear catches on the back end of a minimal piston with leather washer.
its a very simple, has a small diameter spring, smoothbore barrel, .22 cal I can only assume its for darts? I would not have thought it had enough beans for a lead ball?
to load you twist the barrel and slide it forward, it has lugs on the barrel which lock it into place once loaded.
