FIRING
Before ring, practice your stance, sight picture, and breathing for steady aim with your
rearm UNLOADED. Practice ring on a range before using your rearm for any other
type of shooting.
WARNING: ALWAYS WEAR AND ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO WEAR EAR PROTECTION
WHEN SHOOTING, ESPECIALLY ON A RANGE. WITHOUT EAR PROTECTION, THE
NOISE FROM YOUR FIREARM AND OTHER FIREARMS CLOSE TO YOU COULD
LEAVE A “RINGING” IN YOUR EARS FOR SOME TIME AFTER FIRING, WHILE THE
CUMULATIVE LONG-TERM EFFECT COULD BE PERMANENT HEARING LOSS.
WARNING: ALWAYS WEAR AND ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO WEAR PROTECTIVE
SHOOTING GLASSES. FLYING PARTICLES COULD DAMAGE EYES AND CAUSE
BLINDNESS; PROTECTIVE SHOOTING GLASSES SHOULD PREVENT SUCH INJURY.
WARNING: READ SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IN SECTION 3. KEEP YOUR
FIREARM POINTING IN A SAFE DIRECTION. DO NOT TOUCH THE TRIGGER AND
KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM THE EJECTION PORT.
1. Load the rearm as previously described.
2. Grasp rearm with one hand on handguard and other hand on pistol grip
with index nger resting along outside of trigger guard. Raise rearm and pull
buttstock rmly into shoulder; adjust buttstock as necessary.
WARNING: DDM4 PISTOLS ARE NOT DESIGNED TO BE FIRED FROM
THE SHOULDER. MISUSING THE DDM4 PISTOL CAN CAUSE INJURY.
IMPORTANT: DDM4 PISTOLS ARE DESIGNED TO BE FIRED
EXTENDED AT ARM’S LENGTH AND ARE COMPATIBLE WITH PISTOL
STABILIZING BRACES AVAILABLE TO STABILIZE ONE-HANDED FIRING.
3. Aim by aligning target with front and rear sights.
4. Move safety selector lever to “SEMI.”
5. Keeping steady aim, place index nger on trigger and squeeze straight back
until trigger releases hammer. Don’t jerk the trigger as you will disturb your aim
and ruin your accuracy. To re the second and subsequent rounds, all that is
necessary is to release the trigger and squeeze it again after every shot until
you have completed ring or emptied the magazine.
