Does anyone know if you can decock a hw77 mk2, I've tried holding the cocking lever and pulling the trigger in a similar fashion to a break barrel however this does not work.
Is it me being daft or does the mk2 mechanism not allow this to happen

You can't de cock them if the anti bear trap is fitted.
Minor design flaw...
The anti beartrap isn't All it does is stop the trigger working while the lever is back, if the trigger were to fail you would still lose your fingers if not holding the lever. I remove it on mine as I like to be able to safely decock the rifle. But then again, I never let go of the cocking arm.
And still wince when my thumbs in there!

Put a bit of wood in there every time.
It does have a ABT fitted which I suspected may prevent de cocking.

I only do it to clean the barrel Tone. For everyday use, you'd still have your fingers in there to put the dowel in, and fish it back out again... you could use a barbeque tongs for that I suppose...
If you get stuck like that, it's best to press the muzzle into the carpet or similar, to add a bit of resistance.
Aye, it's a trigger lock. So if it doesn't lock the trigger - there's even less point in having it on there.
