Firing
• Cock the rifle by pushing the safety slide
(cocking slide) forward.
• Sight at target and fire.
If the rifle has two triggers
– The front trigger releases the shot in the

upper barrel.
If the rifle has one trigger
– When pulling the trigger the first time,
the shot in the lower barrel is released.
– When pulling the trigger the second time,
the shot in the upper barrel is released.
CAUTION:
When only one shot is fired, one hammer
remains cocked! MORTAL DANGER!
When you do not intend to fire the second
shot immediately, lock (uncock) the rifle
before putting it down!
Please remember that, after firing the first
shot, there is still a live cartridge in the
barrel which was not fired!

After firing one or two shots, the safety slide
(cocking slide) remains in its forward position.
When the locking lever is pushed to the

may only be changed at the factory.

smooth movement, with the rifle un-
