CAUTION

THE PISTOL IS NOW LOADED AND READY TO FIRE.

THE PISTOL AND ITS MAGAZINE ARE NOW LOADED AND WILL FIRE

WHEN THE TRIGGER IS SQUEEZED. REMEMBER TO KEEP THE MUZZLE

POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION UNDER ALL CONDITIONS AND ALWAYS

KEEP YOUR FINGER OR ANY OTHER OBJECT OFF THE TRIGGER AND

OUTSIDE THE TRIGGER GUARD UNTIL YOU DECIDE TO FIRE THE

PISTOL.

NEVER LEAVE A LOADED FIREARM UNATTENDED OR OUT OF YOUR

DIRECT CONTROL.

• If you wish to restore the magazine in your pistol to its full capacity, depress the

magazine release and remove the magazine from the pistol. Remember that there

is a round in the chamber; therefore, the weapon should be holstered or safely

secured during this process without touching the trigger. Load one cartridge into

the magazine to replace the one which was chambered when you allowed the

slide to carry forward.

• Re-insert the loaded magazine into the magazine well of the pistol until it is locked

in place. To make sure that the magazine is again fully and securely inserted,

apply some removal pressure to the exposed portion of the magazine butt plate.

• Your pistol and its magazine are now fully loaded and will fire when the trigger is

pulled. Remember to keep your pistol pointed in a safe direction under all

conditions and always keep your finger or any other object off the trigger and

outside the trigger guard until you have made the commitment to fire the handgun.

Never leave a loaded firearm out of your direct control.

WARNING: AFTER INSERTING A MAGAZINE, ALWAYS TEST TO MAKE

SURE IT IS LOCKED IN PLACE BY APPLYING SOME REMOVAL

PRESSURE TO THE EXPOSED PORTION OF THE BUTT PLATE.

WARNING: THE P99 IS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A MAGAZINE

DISCONNECT FEATURE. THE P99 WILL FIRE WITH THE MAGAZINE

REMOVED FROM THE PISTOL.

3.3 Decocker (P99 AS)

The decocker offers a safe way of de-cocking the

P99 AS. The decocker is routinely used to de-cock the

striker. De-cock the P99 AS after loading, before

holstering and prior to disassembly.

Press the decocker downwards into the slide until the

striker is audibly and visually de-cocked (3.3 Fig. 1).

If you find that it is difficult or cumbersome to manipulate

the decocker using your shooting hand’s thumb, or if

you are left-handed, you should use the thumb of your non-shooting hand to do so.

Always point the pistol in a safe direction during de-cocking.

Always de-cock the P99 AS before holstering. The de-cocked pistol remains

ready for service using the Double Action trigger

WARNING: Pulling the slide rearward will cock the striker again.
