I’ll post a comment to show how you’re ment to hold it.

Often regarded the worst firearm ever made, the Zip 22’s release was the death knell of the up till then successfull company, USFA.

It’s known for it’s horrid ergonomics, unsafe design, and dubious marketing as a ‘less lethal’ device. It also isn’t reliable.

The cocking lever is right next to the muzzle and requires that you to put your hand next to the muzzle, of a firearm that is about to be loaded & chambered.

They did have in their catalog an attachment to let you mount it to a rifle. Directly from the company’s description “Why use a duty round when less force will do? Or test that object in the middle of the street.”

Please do not shoot items you can’t identify properly or use 22lr as a form of ‘less lethal’ force. 22lr is still just lethal force.
