Manual

• If your fi rearm fails to fi re when the trigger
is pulled, handle with care. If the fi rearm fails
to fi re when the trigger is pulled, slow primer
ignition (hangfi re) may possibly be the cause.
Keep the muzzle pointed downrange at the target
for a minimum of 30 seconds. If the round still
does not fi re, remove the magazine, clear the
fi rearm while keeping the muzzle pointed in a
safe direction and the ejection port turned away
from your face, eyes and other body parts, and
examine the ejected, unfi red cartridge. If the
indent from the fi ring pin is off center, light or
absent, take the fi rearm to a competent gunsmith.
If the indent appears normal compared to other
rounds, assume a faulty round, separate from
other cartridges, reload and continue shooting.
• Never use this fi rearm in any manner other than
that for which it was specifi cally designed.
• Never act in an irresponsible manner or
ignore any established rules of safety
when using or storing fi rearms.
• Make sure all other shooters and bystanders
are well away from the ejection port. Empty
cases are ejected under force and may
cause injury if someone is struck.
• Never shoot the fi rearm with your thumb or other
body part directly behind the slide, or you could be
injured when the slide and fi rearm recoil in fi ring.
