Instruction manual

So that the pistol can be used as a
single loader, it will fire whether or
not a magazine is in the gun if a
cartridge is chambered. Removing
magazine does not unload pistol! To
unload, first
remove magazine, then
pull bolt to rear, eject chambered
cartridge, and visually inspect
chamber. Keep safety “on”.

TO LOAD AND FIRE (WITHOUT MAGAZINE)
In the event that the magazine is missing or for training purposes (where it is
desirable that only one cartridge be loaded and fired at a time for safety), the
pistol can be fired with the magazine removed. To do so, follow steps 1 and 2,
p. 13. Next, grasp the bolt and retract it fully to the rear. Push the bolt stop
upward so that the bolt remains to the rear. Insert a single cartridge directly and
fully into the chamber. Taking care to keep the pistol pointed in a safe direction,
pull the bolt fully to the rear, and depress the bolt stop. This will cause the bolt
to move vigorously forward into the firing position. Finally, disengage the safety,
and the pistol can be fired by pulling the trigger. Note that the bolt will not
automatically remain open if the pistol is fired without the magazine in place.
WARNING –UNLOADING
GUN WILL FIRE WITH MAGAZINE OUT
WARNING –HANDLING
ANY GUN MAY FIRE IF DROPPED
9. When the last cartridge loaded into the pistol has been fired, the magazine
follower presses the slide stop upward to engage the slide automatically
holding the action open. If the slide is shut, the shooter should always assume
that there is a cartridge in the chamber!
Don’t rely on your memory to know if a gun or magazine is loaded. Visually
inspect the magazine and the chamber.
If dropped or struck with the safety
“off”, the pistol may fire. Keep
chamber empty unless actually
firing! Keep safety “on” unless
actually firing!
