Unloading:
The only way to be certain that a rifle is unloaded is to check it visually. Place
the safety in the center position (See Figure 1B, page 8), open the bolt, remove
the magazine and look in the chamber to make sure there is not a cartridge pre-
sent. This is essential for your safety and the safety of others.
