Manual

1. Always make sure the muzzle is pointed in a safe direction.

2. Never attempt to load or unload any firearm inside a vehicle, building or

other confined space (except a properly constructed shooting range).

Enclosed areas frequently do not offer a completely safe direction to point

the firearm; if an accidental discharge occurs, there is a great risk of injury or

property damage.

3. Before loading, always clean all grease and oil from the bore and

chamber, and check to be certain that no obstruction is in the barrel. Any

foreign matter in the barrel could result in a bulged or burst barrel or other

damage to the firearm, and could cause serious injury to the shooter or to

others.

FIRING

1. Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction and your finger away from the

trigger when cocking any firearm.

2. Never carry, handle or leave unattended any firearm which is cocked and

ready to fire. When cocked, it will fire from slight pressure on the trigger. An

accidental discharge could easily result if you fall or drop the firearm, or if the

firearm is struck or disturbed by someone or something.

3. If while shooting, your firearm develops ANY mechanical malfunction or

binding, or “spits” powder, gas, or if a cartridge primer is punctured or a

cartridge case is bulged or ruptured, or if the report on firing does not sound

quite right, STOP SHOOTING IMMEDIATELY. It may be dangerous to

continue. UNLOAD THE FIREARM. DO NOT try “one more shot”. Take the

firearm and ammunition to a gunsmith for examination.
