Please note:
There is no substitute for personal
responsibility and common sense in the
handling, use and storage of firearms.
Securely store your unloaded guns away
from access by children or unauthorized
adults.
General handling of rifles
1. Treat every rifle as though it was loaded.
Do not take anyone’s word or auto-
matically assume it is not loaded. Check
your rifle personally each time you handle
it. The safe and courteous way to carry a
rifle when you are with others is to leave
the bolt open so that they can easily see
that the rifle cannot be fired. Make sure
that the rifle is not loaded when you stop
shooting. Make sure your rifle is unloaded
before every transport. Never pick up your
rifle with your finger on the trigger or the
trigger guard.
2. Whenever you pick up your rifle, point
the muzzle at the ground. Always point the
muzzle of the barrel in a safe direction.
Never pull a rifle towards you by the
muzzle.
3. Only use your rifle in approved shooting
ranges. Shoot your rifle only under good
visibility and daylight conditions. If you use
your rifle in an indoors range, make sure it
is adequately ventilated. Make sure that
there is a safe bullet trap which can be seen
from all sides and that there is no one in
the vicinity of your target. Be absolutely
sure of a safe backstop and target. Never
fire at a hard, smooth surface or water.
Never shoot at a skyline target or into the
air. Do not shoot at anything from which a
bullet may ricochet. Never fire your rifle
with the muzzle in the water or against any
other material to avoid an accident or
damage of your rifle.
4. Be sure that you use the correct am-
munition. The correct calibre can be seen
on your rifle. Load your rifle only when
you are at the range and ready to shoot.
Use only genuine ANSCHÜTZ magazines.
Do not exceed the stated magazine
capacity. Alterations to the rifle or the use
of non-ANSCHÜTZ magazines and
accessories may cause malfunctions.
5. Always keep your rifle clean. Be sure
the bore is not obstructed by dirt, water,
grease or any other foreign materials.
Never try to shoot out any obstruction.
6.Serious injury and damage can result
from the use of the wrong ammunition,
bore obstructions, or incorrect cartridge
components.
7. Place the safety fully into „S“ or „F“
position - never inbetween. Always keep
safety in full „safe“ position until ready to
fire. Do not put your finger on the trigger
when operating the safety or whenever
you are not ready to shoot.
8. When not in use your rifle should be
stored in a locked and secure place
accessible only to you. Check first to make
sure it is unloaded. Store the rifle with
uncocked trigger. Store ammunition in a
separate and secure place. It is your
special responsibility to make sure that at
