THE BOLT LOCK

The bolt lock is located in the forward section of the trigger guard (see Figure 1,

p. 6). The bolt lock is the manually operated means of retaining the bolt in the

rearward (open) position. When the bolt is locked open, the rifle is in an inopera-

tive safe condition for inspection of the chamber, cleaning, etc.

To lock the bolt open: Retract the bolt handle to its extreme rearward position

and, while holding it there, press in on the lower

section of the bolt lock. Release

pressure on the bolt handle and it will move forward a fraction of an inch, and

then be locked in its open position.

To release the bolt: Retract the bolt handle to its extreme rearward position and

then press in on the upper

section of the bolt lock. Release the bolt and it will

move fully forward.

NOTE: Simply retracting the bolt will not disengage the lock. The bolt lock must

be deliberately pressed up while the bolt is held fully to the rear. Only then will

the bolt close when released. This is designed to prevent accidental release of the

bolt from its open position.
