WARNING
To avoid accidental firing, BE SURE WEAPON IS CLEAR. Failure to do so
could result in serious injury or death.
Be sure the cam pin is installed in the bolt group. If it isn’t, your
OA-93/OA-96
can still fire and will explode, causing injury or death.
DO NOT exchange or switch bolt assemblies from one OA-93/OA-96 to
another. It could cause damage to both you and your weapon. DO NOT
attempt to install a standard AR-15 or M-16 bolt or bolt carrier in your
OA-
93/OA-96.
Any attempt to do so will cause damage to both you and it.
DON’T OVERHEAT YOUR
OA-93/OA-96’s BARREL. Sustained firing of the
OA-93/OA-96
will rapidly raise the temperature of the barrel to a critical point.
Firing 140 rounds, rapidly and continuously will raise the temperature of the
barrel to the
COOKOFF POINT. At this temperature, any live round remaining
in the chamber for any reason may cookoff (detonate) in as short a period as 10
seconds.
If the cookoff point is felt to be possible, CLEAR YOUR WEAPON AND
ALLOW IT TO COOL.
Sustained rate of fire for the OA-93/OA-96 is 12-15 rounds per minute. This is
the actual rateof fire that this weapon can continue to deliver for an
length of time
without seriously overheating.
indefinite
Sustained rate of fire should never be exceeded except under circumstances of
extreme urgency.
If your bolt fails to unlock and you try to free it by banging the receiver assem-
bly, keep clear of the muzzle.
If there’s water in the barrel, don’t fire the weapon. It could explode.
If you experience a noticeable difference in sound or recoil, STOP FIRING.
Either condition could indicate an incomplete propellant burn and a bullet still
in the bore. Retract bolt slowly and remove fired cartridge case. Clear weapon
and check for unburned powder grains in the receiver or bore, and for a bullet
in the bore. Remove unburned propellant or bullet from bore before resuming
firing or barrel could explode. If bullet is lodged in bore, take your carbine to a
qualified gunsmith.
If your OA-93/OA-96 stops firing with a live round in the chamber of a hot bar-
rel, remove the round quickly. If you cannot remove the round within 10 sec-
onds, point the OA-93/OA-96 in a safe direction and wait 15 minutes. In this
way, you won’t be injured by a possible ammunition
cookoff, which could hap-
pen within 10 seconds after contact with a hot chamber. Clear your
OA-
93/OA-96.
Use only authorized brass case ammunition that is manufactured in the U.S.A.,
to U.S. specifications. Do not use re-manufactured or imported ammunition.
Please read this manual carefully before attempting to use your OA-93/
OA-96.
