NEVER KEEP AMMUNITION IN THE SAME LOCATION AS THE FIREARM. Store each in a separate and
secure place.
ALWAYS WEAR EYE AND EAR PROTECTORS THAT ARE SPECIFIED FOR FIREARM USE
EVERY TIME YOU DISCHARGE YOUR FIREARM. Make sure others in the vicinity of where you will be
shooting do so as well.
NEVER USE ALCOHOL OR DRUGS BEFORE OR WHILE SHOOTING. Do not use your firearm if you are on
any medication which impairs, even slightly, your mental or physical ability.
ALWAYS HAVE ADEQUATE VENTILATION. Discharging firearms, cleaning firearms, or handling ammunition
in poorly ventilated areas may result in exposure to lead and other substances known to cause birth defects,
reproductive harm, and other serious physical injury. Review the warnings and labels for all ammunition and
cleaning products carefully. Wash hands thoroughly after exposure.
BEFORE HANDLING ANY FIREARM, UNDERSTAND ITS OPERATION. Not all firearms are the same.

any operational aspects of your firearm, please contact Lewis Machine & Tool Co. customer service at (309)

BE SURE ALL ACCESSORIES ARE COMPATIBLE WITH THE FIREARM AND THAT THE ACCESSORIES
DO NOT INTERFERE WITH SAFE OPERATION.
