Luckily I enjoy taking things apart, and it took taking off the stock to decock the gun. Any person that just buys guns to shot would have to send the gun in for repair with the spring cocked for who knows how long. I think I can see why we don't see the Rutten name on airguns anymore. Lol But still goes down as the weirdest rifle I have ever seen, and I can see why you can get them so cheap. As I said before you don't have to be nuts to buy one but it sure helps.
Agree with your conclusion regarding Rutten, my experience with the underlever version, the Winstar left me with a damaged hand, and my mate shot a hole in his front door with it.
