(Figure 13, page 22). Make
certain the rim of the shell
engages the shell stop and is
held fully inside the magazine
tube. It will make an audible
click when fully inserted.
4 If desired, continue loading the
magazine until it is full.
LOADING THE CHAMBER
MANUALLY FROM
THE MAGAZINE
1 With the bolt closed, depress the
carrier with the front of the shell and, using your thumb, push
the shell into the magazine until the shell is held in place by the
shell stop.
2 If desired, continue to load the magazine, as explained above, to
full capacity.
3 If shooting is imminent, a shell can now be moved from the
magazine to the chamber by pulling back fully on the operating
handle and releasing it forward. A shell will be fed automatically
from the magazine to the chamber as the bolt closes. Another shell
can then be inserted into the magazine to load to full capacity.
THE SHOTGUN IS NOW READY TO FIRE BY SIMPLY MOVING THE “SAFETY”
TO THE OFF SAFE POSITION AND PULLING THE TRIGGER.
LOADING THE CHAMBER THROUGH THE EJECTION PORT
1 Pull the operating handle to the rear until the bolt locks in the
open position. Visually inspect the chamber, feed mechanism and
magazine to make sure they are clear of any obstructions.
2 If shooting is imminent, insert a shell of the proper gauge and
length through the ejection port into the open breech (Figure 14).
