Operation and Maintenance Manual

WARNING! Do not use this silencer with ammunition and host
firearms that fall outside the list in the chart above. Using this silencer
with ammunition and host firearms that fall outside the list in the
chart above may lead to property damage, personal injury and/or
death.
INSTALLING YOUR HALCYON ON A HOST FIREARM
1. Always keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction.
2. Render the firearm safe by removing the magazine, completely unload-
ing the firearm (chamber and magazine) and engaging the safety to the
"SAFE" position. See the firearm's owner's manual for detailed instruc-
tions.
3. Remove the thread protector from the muzzle, if present.
4. Inspect the muzzle threads to verify they are clean and undamaged.
WARNING! Never attempt to attach a HALCYON silencer to muzzle
threads that are dirty or damaged, as this may lead to property dam-
age, personal injury and/or death.
5. Inspect the threads in the rear of the HALCYON to verify they are clean
and undamaged.
WARNING! Never attempt to attach a HALCYON silencer with dirty or
damaged threads to a firearm, as this may lead to property damage,
personal injury and/or death.
6. Look through the silencer from the rear to insure the bullet path through
the silencer is unobstructed.
WARNING! Never use a silencer with an obstructed bore, as this may
lead to property damage, personal injury and/or death.
7. Examine the silencer for any signs of damage.
8. Carefully screw the silencer
onto the host firearm's muz-
zle threads in the direction
indicated in Figure 1.
9. Tighten the silencer by hand
in the direction indicated with
sufficient torque to keep the
silencer securely threaded
onto the barrel during opera-
tion.
NOTE: When tightening or loosening the HALCYON to or from a host
firearm, grasp the silencer by the gripping surface on the main tube
body identified in Figure 1.
WARNING! It is the responsibility of the user to insure the silencer
stays securely threaded to the barrel of the host firearm during use.
Failure to insure the silencer stays securely threaded to the host
firearm may lead to property damage, personal injury and/or death.
VERIFYING SECURE INSTALLATION OF YOUR HALCYON
It is good practice to check the tightness of your HALCYON on the host
firearm between reloads when the host firearm is completely empty (cham-
ber and magazine) when shooting.
CAUTION! Silencers can become extremely hot while the host firearm
is being shot. Heat-resistant gloves must be worn when verifying the
security of the installation of a HALCYON silencer on the host firearm.
Handling a hot silencer without heat-resistant gloves may cause skin
burns and/or personal injury.
1. Always keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction.
2. Render the firearm safe by removing the magazine, completely unload-
ing the firearm and engaging the safety to the "SAFE" position. See the
