SAFETY
WARNINGS.
EAR AND EYE PROTECTION
Use ear plugs or earmu-type protectors to guard
you against cumulative, permanent hearing loss as
a result of continuous exposure to shooting noise.
Shooting glasses will guard you against powder, gas,
carbon residue, lubricant, metallic particles or simi-
lar debris that may emanate occasionally from any
rearm in normal use. Always make sure that any-
one near you is also wearing ear and eye protection.

SAFETY MECHANISM
1.
Your firearm has an effective, well-designed safety
mechanism. However, there’s no safety mechanism
capable of substituting your common sense and
good safety procedures. No safety can guard you
against horseplay, carelessness, or improper use. It
may become ineective by breakage or malfunction
due to abusive use, incorrect assembly, or unauthor-
ized adjustments.
2. While handling any rearm, never allow it to point
at any part of your body or at another person. No
harm should result if you obey this rule, even if an
accidental discharge occurs.
3. The safety mechanism should be on until you are
actually aiming at the target ready to shoot.
4. When turning the safety ON or OFF, point the muzzle
in a safe direction and keep your nger o the trigger.
5. Be sure to put the safety in the correct position or it
will not be eective. Some rearms have a red warning
dot next to the safety which should be totally covered
when the safety is on.
6. Do not carry the rearm loaded without the safety
on (Double action revolvers and some double action
pistols have an automatic internal safety mechanism
instead of a manual one).
