to fire.

7. Place the rifle back on “SAFE.” (See Illustration #2.)

To Fire the Rifle

1. Keeping the 10 Commandments of Firearm Safety in mind, aim the rifle downrange at

the target. When firing this rifle you may need to experiment with different shooting styles until

you find the method which best suits your intended use. Remember to always fire the rifle in

such a manner that you can maintain a safe muzzle direction at all times.

2. Disengage the safety lever by moving it to the "FIRE" position. (See Illustration #3.)

3. After aligning the sights on your target, place your finger inside the triggerguard and on

the trigger.

4. Slowly pull the trigger fully rearward to fire the first round. If nothing happens, ensure that the

selector lever is in the downward “FIRE” position and try again.

5. Being a semi-automatic rifle, the rifle’s action (its moving parts) will cycle after the first round is

fired. As the bolt moves rearward, the extractor will pull the empty cartridge case

from the chamber and eject it from the rifle. (Make sure there are no bystanders in

close proximity on either side of the rifle who could be injured by the ejected

cartridge case or gasses expelled from the rifle.)

NOTE: If the trigger is pressed again, the rifle will fire! Keep the rifle pointed

in a safe direction. Keep your fingers away from the muzzle when firing the gun.

6. Firing may be continued in this manner until the magazine is empty.

7. When firing is finished, place the safety lever in the “SAFE” position. (See Illustration #2.)

WARNING! The barrel, gas block and gas tube will be very hot after firing!

WARNING! Keep your fingers away from the muzzle!
