MODEL 95 DESCRIPTION OF FIREARM - FIGURE 1 The Model 95 rifle is a magazine-fed, bolt-action rifle. The shooter, having inserted a loaded magazine into the rifle, cycles the bolt which strips a cartridge from the top of the magazine and feeds it into the chamber. The firing pin assembly is cocked by lifting the bolt handle. The bolt is equipped with an extractor which removes a cartridge or shell casing. A manually controlled safety prevents or permits trigger movement.

To place the rifle in the safe mode, push the safety lever selector to the “S” (safe) position.
MODEL 95 BIPOD OPERATION The bipod assembly is used to fire from the prone position and assist in operator’s manipulation of the firearm. To reposition the bipod legs, pull each bipod leg away from the yoke (FIGURE 4-A) and rotate to the desired position (FIGURE 4-B). The bipod leg will lock into place (forward, rearward, and 90 degrees from the receiver). The bipod legs of the Model 95 extend to increase height. Pulling on the feet of the bipod causes the legs to extend.

barrett.net CYCLING THE ACTION To cycle the action after firing, lift the bolt handle up, then pull it fully to the rear. This action will extract the spent cartridge casing from the chamber and eject it from the rifle.
