Pull the bolt back and you should see it sitting inside a groove where the pellet loads.

I just checked the o ring is gone. I fired it and it scared the living &^^& out of me. It was so loud it rang my ears. Where do you order o rings from? Thanks

Thanks I was just wondering if there was any bad ones or good ones. Seems like an o ring is an o ring.

They are 009s you can buy at Home Depot or such as. Im sure there are differences in material durability, but in the meantime you can get up and running with anything until you settle on one material, ie: buna, nitrile, viton, etc. You're going to change it out from time to timeanyway, carry a few spares, they're pretty cheap.

In my experience, the Lowes orings are superior to the Crosman orings. In the plumbing section look for .25 ID orings. .

Beware though I bought a rebuild kit that came with some and they were harder than the oring that came originally and was very hard to push pellets through and even the bolt wasnt easy to push through. Even was throwing off my accuracy. Stole the one out of my crosman barrel (replacing mine on MMHF barrel) now its back to normal.
