You must understand that it is impossible to make this firearm absolutely safe from
firing under every and all circumstances when it is in a loaded condition. This risk can
be greatly diminished or eliminated by simply keeping your firearm unloaded until you
are actually ready to shoot. Like any other complex item, a firearm can be damaged or
broken by abuse, such as dropping it on a hard surface. If you drop your gun, unload it
and have it checked by a competent gunsmith or our Factory personnel to be sure that
no internal damage has occured which might make it unsafe or unreliable.
Always keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction. A safe direction means a direction
which will not permit a discharged bullet to strike a person. A bullet may penetrate a
wall, ceiling, floor, window, etc. and still be capable of injuring or killing a person.
Always know exactly where the muzzle of your firearm is pointed and always keep your
finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot. Never shoot at hard flat surfaces or
water. Bullets can ricochet in unpredictable directions. Never climb a tree or jump with
a loaded firearm.
Store your firearm and the respective ammunition in a secured location away from
children or unentitled people. If a child finds a loaded firearm, injury or death may
result. Never leave a loaded gun unattended. Your firearm is your responsibility!
Guns and alcohol or drugs do not mix. Never take them before or during shooting.
Always handle or treat every firearm as if it were loaded. If a firearm fails to fire when
the trigger is pulled, keep it pointed at the intended target for at least 30 seconds.
Sometimes a malfunction in the firearm may cause a delayed firing or a primer or
powder ignition will cause a “hang fire” and the shot will go off after a short pause. Be
very careful to keep the muzzle in a safe direction while the “problem” is cleared.
Never rely on a firearm’s safeties to protect you from unsafe gun handling. Safeties are
only mechanical devices and not a substitute for common sense. When you are around
firearms, always think of gun safety. Never disobey the rules of safe gun handling.
Never “play” with a firearm. Your gun can’t think, but you can!
Caution!
Your firearm has been designed for ammunition of a specific type and caliber. Use only
ammunition in conformance to the provisions of C.I.P. or SAAMI and corresponding to
the caliber of the firearm. The correct caliber is specified on the firearm. Particularly
when using reloaded ammunition, the permitted gas pressure according to C.I.P. or
SAAMI must not be exceeded. Excessive pressures can damage or even “blow up” any
firearm. Ammunition with velocities and pressures higher than those for which the
firearm was designed will subject the firearm to additional stress, may cause excessive
wear and may cause serious damage to your firearm and to you!
Before loading, always wipe off any excess grease and oil and check that the bore of
the barrel is clean and that there is no obstruction in the bore!
Always wear ear protection and safety glasses when shooting. Also, alert bystanders to
the importance of wearing ear protection and safety glasses!
Any damage or harm due to neglection of above instructions, releases the producer
