Manual

1. Removable baseplate magazine
CAUTION: The magazine spring is
under tension and could come out
causing injury.
To remove the base, push in the base lock which
sticks out through a hole in the base, and slide the
base off towards the front of the magazine. Then
remove the base lock by sliding it towards the front
of the magazine. The spring and follower can now
be removed through the bottom of the magazine.
(See picture #9)
To reassemble this magazine, insert the follower and
spring through the bottom of the magazine. Be sure
that the top coil of the spring is installed towards the
front of the magazine. Compress the spring and
slide the base lock under the two tabs on the bottom of the magazine. Depress the
base lock and slide the base under the two tabs and towards the rear of the maga-
zine. Carefully align the protrusion on the base lock with the hole in the base until
the base lock sticks out through the hole.
2. Non-removable baseplate magazine
To remove this magazine follower and spring,
depress them with a piece of wood, such as a
pencil, approx. two to two one-half inches into the
magazine and insert a thin rod or small screw-
driver through the lower of the front two witness
holes in the magazine tube. This will retain the
spring under tension. (see picture #10)
Turn the magazine upside down and lightly
tap it so that the follower falls away from the
spring; lift out the follower from the magazine
body. Push down on the spring to take up the
spring tension, remove the thin rod and care-
fully allow the spring to extend, then remove it
completely from the magazine tube.
To reassemble this magazine, place the spring correctly oriented, i.e. with the
uppermost loop pointing forward into the magazine tube, compress the spring and
insert a thin rod to hold the spring under tension. Place the follower in the maga-
zine and take up the spring tension by removing the thin rod and allow the spring
to push the follower up and seat it against the feed lips.
