A video how-to on how to insert and load 12 gram CO2 capsules into the recreational target shooting 6-shot burst Umarex Steel Strike Airgun that shoots BB from a drop free magazine.

Drop the magazine using the mag release. Make sure the gun is on safe and unloaded.
Remove the butt stock. Unscrew the CO2 puncture screw from the rear. Put a drop of silicone oil, we like RWS Chamber Lube, on the tip of the CO2, both capsules. Insert the small end of the capsule first and make sure the small end of the 2nd capsule is pointed up. Screw in the CO2 puncture screw with the Allen tool provided with the Steel Strike air gun. Tighten until you hear the CO2 hiss just slightly. Put the butt stock back on. Point in a safe direction, put off safe, and squeeze the trigger to make sure it fires properly. That's it! You've just loaded CO2 into your Airgun.

Tip: When you go to load BBs... ONLY PULL THE BB FOLLOWER ARM WHEN MAGAZINE IS LOADED
