4. Safety
Disengaging from safe position
(cocking)
Returning to the safe position
(locking/decocking)
The safety system of the Blaser Drilling D 99
is based on uncocked firing pin springs.
The firing pin springs are cocked with the
safety slide (cocking slide) immediately
before the shot.
CAUTION:
Your Blaser Drilling is equipped with two
hammers: when the cocking slide is pushed
forward, both hammers are cocked.
Push the safety slide (cocking slide) all the
way to the front, until it locks.
Safety slide (cocking slide) in front position:
The rifle is disengaged from safe position,
the hammers are cocked.
Press rear end of safety slide (cocking slide)
down with your thumb and let it slide
back wards. With some practise, this can be
done without making a sound.
When the safety slide (cocking slide) is in
its rear position: The rifle is locked, the
hammers are decocked.
CAUTION:
Under no circumstances should you
put your fingers into the triggers
when disengaging (cocking) or locking
(decocking) your rifle (you may be used to
do this from rifles with exposed hammers).
This would trigger the shots, when the rifle
is loaded!
NOTE:
When opening the rifle - pressing the
locking lever to the right - the safety slide
(cocking slide) jumps back into the "safe”
(decocked) position automatically.
