The burping is because the hammer is not being pushed back far enough to engage the sear. It ususally stops by itself after wasting some air but you can grab the cocking screw and push it forward or hold it backward or just push it against in towards the body with your hand. It will of course try to chew up your hand a little. But the force of the hammer spring isn't any more than when you cock it manually so it not a big deal. Only pain.... No stitches. Now you can put a LP valve in there and a set of MadMan Springs and get your operating pressure down even more. Makes a lot quieter marker and a lot less wear and tear on the internals. If you want bragging rights for the lowest pressure marker, I have a broken guage I'll sell you that reads 165 psi all the time... Otherwise go with reliability and consistency. My boy went LP and we set the target pressure at 300 psi. It worked. We saw no need to see how low it would go....
