Important Parts of the Firearm
The Safety Mechanism
The safety mechanism on the Model 7400™ Autoloading Centerfire
Rifle is a button located behind the trigger. See Pictures 3 and 4.
The safety mechanism provides protection against accidental or uninten-
tional discharge under normal usage when properly engaged and in good
working order.
To engage the safety mechanism, push the button so that the
RED BAND
MARKING CANNOT BE SEEN.
Always engage the safety mechanism when the firearm is loaded and
you do not intend to shoot.
Never pull the trigger when the safety mechanism is engaged.
When you are ready to fire the firearm, press the safety mechanism
so that the
RED BAND MARKING IS SHOWING.
Do not touch the trigger while moving the safety mechanism.
Your fingers and all other objects should be kept outside of
the trigger guard and away from the trigger until you are actually
ready to fire by pulling the trigger.
WARNING: The firearm will fire when the trigger is pulled and the
RED BAND IS SHOWING.
Even when the safety mechanism is engaged, careless handling can
cause the firearm to fire. See the Ten Commandments of Firearm Safety
on page 2.
