SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Always follow the safety instructions for your own safety and the safety of others.
1. Always handle your firearm as if it were loaded.
2. Never point your firearm at anything you do not intend to shoot.
3. Never take anyone’s word that the firearm is unloaded.
4. Always make sure that your firearm is unloaded and "broken" before laying it down, or
handing it to another person.
5. Always store your firearm unloaded, with its striking mechanism released.
6. Never abuse your firearm by using it for any purpose other than shooting.
7. Never leave a cocked and loaded firearm unattended.
8. Prior to loading the firearm, make sure that the barrel bores are clean and clear of
obstructions. Clean a dirtied firearm immediately so that it will always function properly
and safely.
9. Do not shoot the firearm, unless you are certain about the ammunition you are using. Do
not use unmarked or hand-loaded ammunition from an unknown source, ammunition with
a cracked, deformed or dented case or with a damaged bullet. Reloading is an expert
activity and incorrectly reloaded ammunition may be extremely dangerous. It may result
in heavy damage or destruction of the firearm and serious injury or death of the shooter
or other persons. Always use clean and dry original high quality commercially
manufactured ammunition, which corresponds to the caliber of the firearm.
10. Never drink alcohol or take drugs before or during shooting.
11. Always wear safety glasses and ear protectors during shooting whenever possible.
12. Always keep the safety on when the firearm is loaded, until you are ready to fire. Keep
the firearm pointed in a safe direction whilst disengaging the safety.
13. Never squeeze the trigger, or put your finger in the trigger guard until you are aiming at
a target and ready to shoot.
14. Always be absolutely sure of your target, and the area behind it, before you squeeze the
trigger. Shot or bullets could travel through or past your target and up to several hundred
meters.
15. Never shoot at a hard surface such as rock, or a liquid surface such as water.
16. Never fire your firearm near an animal unless it is trained to accept the noise.
17. Never indulge in "horseplay" while holding your firearm.
