Manual

Positive extraction is facilitated by an improved internal extractor. The plunger
tube for slide stop and thumb safety is integral to the frame, not staked as in
many 1911 versions, and will never come loose. The swedged link pin will also
not come loose or come out.
There are three hammer positions on your RUGER
®
SR1911
TM
pistol: AT
REST (fully forward), FULLY COCKED (fully rearward) and HALF-COCKED
position.
AT REST (fully forward) position is when the face of the hammer is resting on
the firing pin.
FULLY COCKED (fully rearward) is when the hammer is pulled to the second
click point. This is the fire position.
HALF-COCKED position of the hammer functions as an automatic safety
position. It will prevent the hammer from falling fully forward unintentionally.
Never attempt to fire the pistol from the half-cocked position. To remove the
hammer from the half-cocked position, keep the firearm pointed in a safe
direction, your finger off the trigger and out of the trigger guard, then draw the
hammer to the fully cocked position. From this position, the pistol may be fired
or decocked. The half-cocked position is not a manual safety. The hammer
should never be left in this position. Never carry the pistol in the half-cocked
position.
