OBSTRUCTION / CHOKE TUBES
CONDITION CHECK
Check the barrel to ensure there are no obstructions in the chamber and bore.
This is extremely important because serious injury can result to the user or to
nearby persons if a cartridge is fired in an obstructed barrel or chamber.
Check the inside of the barrel prior to completely assembling the firearm and
before use; if the firearm is already assembled the following procedure should
be followed:
• Follow the instructions in the “Disassembly” section and remove the barrel
from the shotgun.
• After removing the barrel, look right through the barrel from the rear and make
sure there are no obstructions, even minor ones.
• If an obstruction in the barrel is detected, a competent gunsmith must remove
the obstruction. Inspect again the shotgun before it can be fired.
• Remount the barrel, following the instructions set out in the “Reassembly”
section.
CHECKING THE CONDITION OF THE CHOKE TUBES
• Always check the appearance and cleaning of the choke tubes before using
the shotgun.
• Check correct tightness in the barrel with the wrench provided.
• Never use choke tubes that show signs of defects, warping or incrustation.
• Make sure that the choke tube inserted is appropriate for the intended use
and shot type to be used (steel or lead). See “Ammunition” chapter.
