TO UNLOAD RIFLE AND MAGAZINE
(Rifle Must Be Kept Pointed In A Safe Direction)
Unload the rifle immediately when you are finished shooting!
NOTE: This sequence must be followed exactly as spelled out. Failure to do so
can result in the rifle’s chamber becoming unintentionally loaded with a car-
tridge!
1. Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction at all times and keep fingers out-
side the trigger guard, away from the trigger at all times during unloading. If
the rifle is cocked, move the safety to the “on” position.
2. Remove the magazine. Remember that even though the magazine has been
removed, a cartridge remaining in the chamber can still be fired!
3. Retract the bolt to its open position and lock it there. This should eject any
cartridge in the chamber, but...
4. Always visually double check the chamber to be certain it is empty.
5. The only “safe” rifle is one in which the bolt is open and the chamber and
magazine are empty.
