WAYS BECERTAIN THAT THE MUZZLE IS
POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION AND
THAT THE “SAFETY” IS IN THE “ON
SA FE” POSITlON.
1. One way to unload the A-500G is sim-
ply to grasp the operating handle and
cycle the action until all rounds are
ejected.
2. The magazine can also be unloaded
manually by reaching inside the loading
port with your index finger, and simulta-
neously pressing in on the bottom of the
carrier and pressing the carrier latch
(See Figure 18 on page 36). Release and
remove one shell at a time from the
magazine, until empty. Remove the shell
from the chamber by cycling the action.
ALWAYS INSPECT THE CHAMBER,
ACTION, CARRIER AND MAGAZINE
VERY CAREFULLY AFTER UNLOAD-
ING TO BE SURE ALL LIVE ROUNDS
ARE CLEARED FROM THE GUN.
Breech Remains Open After
the Last Shot
The breech of the A-500G remains open,
with the breechblock locked to the rear,
after the last shot has been fired. This allows
convenient and fast reloading as follows:
1. Place the “safety” in the “on safe” posi-
tion.
2. Drop an appropriate shell into the open
breech.
3. Close the action by depressing the
breechblock release button.
