B) indirect procedure:
1) Open the bolt and hold it in this position
through the cocking lever. Press in the same
time the cartridge drop lever, so that the first
cartridge in the magazine drops into the car-
rier (fig. 21).
2) Release the cocking lever: the bolt will push
the cartridge on the carrier into the chamber
and stop in the closed position.
WARNING: with the procedure “B” the number
of cartridges in the magazine will be reduced by
one round. A new cartridge can be inserted - see
above - to fill the magazine completely.
NOTE: during this operation, always point the
gun in a safe direction, even though the safety
catch is engaged (see “Gun safety catch”).
Now the gun is loaded: when the safety catch is
moved to firing position (red ring visible), the
gun is ready for use.
Cartridge replacement
(This operation must be carried out with the gun
safety catch engaged - see “Gun safety catch”,
and barrel pointed in a safe direction)
To replace a cartridge in the chamber, two proce-
dures can be followed:
A) by manual replacement of a new cartridge;
B) by using the cartridge drop lever.
A) manual replacement (when the cartridge is
not in the magazine)
1) Rest the stock on your hip and pull the cock-
ing lever to open the bolt: the cartridge in the
chamber is extracted and ejected from the
gun (fig. 22).
2) Insert a new cartridge in the barrel through
the ejection port (fig. 20) and release the
cocking lever to close the bolt again.
B) using the cartridge drop lever (when the car-
tridge is in the magazine)
1) Rest the stock on your hip and open the bolt
by hand: the cartridge in the chamber is
extracted and ejected from the gun (fig. 22).
2) Press the cartridge drop lever (fig. 21).
Release the cocking lever to reclose the bolt.
In this way, the cartridge will pass quickly
from the magazine to the chamber.
