INSPECTING
YOUR REVOLVER
WARNING: ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE FIREARM IS
UNLOADED BEFORE INSPECTING.
When you inspect your revolver, you must first check for yourself
to ensure that it is unloaded. Do this with your finger off the trigger
and out of the trigger guard (Figure 5) and keep the barrel of the
firearm pointed in a safe direction. Press the thumbpiece forward
and push the cylinder to the left (Figure 6).
You must verify that all charge holes are free of live rounds and the
barrel is free of any obstructions.
You must follow this procedure every time your revolver leaves
your hand, is cleaned, handed to you or another person, trans-
ported or stored.
WARNING: NEVER RELY ON MECHANICAL FEA-
TURES ALONE. ONLY YOUR SAFE GUN HANDLING
WILL ENSURE THE SAFE USE OF YOUR FIREARM.
THIS IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.
