STORAGE

GUNS SHOULD NOT BE STORED LOADED!

Do not keep the pistol stored in a leather holster or case. Leather attracts

moisture, even though the holster or case may appear to be perfectly dry.

TO RENDER THE PISTOL INOPERATIVE FOR SAFE STORAGE

With the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, remove the magazine, retract the

bolt, and check the chamber to be sur

e the pistol is completely unloaded! Now

close the bolt and carefully pull the trigger to un-cock the pistol.

Firing a pistol with oil, grease, or any other

material even partially obstructing the bore

may result in damage to the pistol and

serious injury to the shooter and those

nearby.

Do not spray or apply lubricants directly on

ammunition. If the powder of a cartridge is

affected by the lubricant, it may not be

ignited, but the primer firing may push the

bullet into the bore where it may become

lodged. Firing a subsequent bullet into the

obstructed bore may damage the pistol and

cause serious injury or death to the shooter

and those nearby. Use lubricants properly.

You are responsible for the proper care and

maintenance of your firearms.

3. Using powder solvent on a clean patch or bristle brush, remove powder

residue from all components of the mechanism. After cleaning, run a dry

patch through the bore, then follow with a patch that is very lightly oiled.

Wipe all surfaces clean with a cloth, then wipe all surfaces with a patch or

cloth that has been very lightly oiled.

4. NOTE: Only a light application of oil is needed to provide adequate

lubrication of moving parts and to prevent rust. Excess accumulations of oil

tend to attract particles of dust and dirt and may congeal in cold weather

which can interfere with the safe and reliable function of the pistol.

5. If magazine becomes dirty, it should be disassembled and thoroughly cleaned

(See “Magazine Disassembly” section, p. 24).

6. Before firing remove all oil and grease from the bore.
