In the event the bolt is in its open position, a

slightly different technique may be used to swing

the magazine open and close the bolt at

approximately the same time. Again, the first

step is to insure that the safety is in its ON SAFE

position. Next, hold the rifle with the muzzle

pointed in a safe direction, with the left hand at

forearm, as described before. Then, hook the

thumb of the right hand over the operating

handle and pull it slightly rearward while at the

same time releasing the magazine latch with the

right index finger. (See Figure 3) The hinged

magazine

floorplate unit will swing downward.
