WARNING – TRIGGER
DO NOT TOUCH THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOU ARE ACTUALLY READY
TO FIRE THE PISTOL.
Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction and your finger away from the
trigger when cocking any firearm.
Never fire any firearm with your finger, hand, face, or other part of your body
over or adjacent to the ejection port, or in any position where you may be
struck by reciprocating movement of the breech. Both the ejection of empty
cartridge cases and the movement of the breech are part of the normal
operating cycle of firearms, and pose no safety hazard to the shooter if the
firearm is held in a normal grip and fired at arm’s length.
Never allow other persons to stand beside you where they might be struck
by an ejected cartridge case. The case is hot, and may be ejected with
sufficient force to cause a burn, cut, or other injury. Wear safety glasses
to protect eyes. Make certain there is a clear, unobstructed path for safe
ejection of the fired case. Remember, the case may bounce off a hard object
nearby and strike you or someone else.
