Thanks for your response. The first thing I did when I received it was pull up on the toggle and take a peek in the chamber. Then broke it down, pulled up the toggle and took a look through the barrel. Really wild to see all the differences between this design and anything else I've ever seen. Very creative minds at work here. Comparing this gun to the WWII versions (on the internet - I don't own one), they are amazingly similar. Like the old Smith & Wesson revolvers, and cheap wood mouse-traps, once they got things 'right', there weren't many changes made.

I think you are right that the toggle was not engaged properly. Once I followed the instructions in the video link posted by gunnertwo, everything worked great. Just now I broke it down again and had the initial issues repeated. Did it again and now it's fine.

Thanks for the grip recommendations. I got lucky on the first try and the grip panel fell off in my hand with no effort, but I'll certainly be careful to avoid chipping in the future.
