Notes on 9mm Parabellum Revolvers: This model is chambered for the 9mm
Parabellum (Luger) cartridge. A package of 9mm clips are supplied with the
revolver and are required to allow proper ejection of the 9mm rimless cases. See
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR 9mm CLIPS, p. 14. Do not
use any other 9mm
cartridges (9mm Short, 9mm Bergmann, etc.).
Because 9mm cartridges are manufactured worldwide for use in pistols,
revolvers, and submachine guns, it is possible to encounter cartridges which,
when fired, develop pierced primers. If this occurs, discontinue the use of the
particular brand or type of ammunition. The possibility of a pierced primer is
another complete reason why a shooter should always wear pr
otective glasses
to
shield his eyes. Use only metal jacketed bullets in 9mm revolvers. When a lead
bullet is fired, its base expands and a ring of lead is shaved off and deposited in
the shoulder area of the chamber. A build-up of lead rings can prevent proper
chambering of cartridges because 9mm cartridge mouths seat on the chamber
shoulders.
Notes on .22 Caliber Long Rifle: The .22 cal. model is a six-shot double action
revolver chambered for the .22 Long Rifle cartridge. The .22 Short, .22 Long and
.22 shot cartridges can also be fired from this model. It should be noted that
extensive use of the .22 Short cartridge can cause a “ring” to be cut in each
cylinder chamber which may interfere with the extraction of Long and Long Rifle
Cartridges.
Notes on Caliber .32 H & R Magnum: This six-shot SP101 chambered for the
Caliber .32 H & R Magnum cartridge will also chamber the .32 S & W cartridge
and the .32 S & W Long cartridge. The use of other than .32 H & R Magnum
cartridges, may, in some loadings, result in unsatisfactory accuracy.
For reasons noted above, revolver chambers should be cleaned regularly and
chamber cleaning should be the first corrective action when cartridges of the
correct caliber and type do not chamber properly.
WARNING AMMUNITION
Death, serious injury, and damage
can result from the use of wrong
ammunition, bore obstructions,
powder overloads, or incorrect
cartridge components. Always wear
shooting glasses and hearing
protectors.
