WARNING: FIREARMS ARE DANGEROUS WHEN
USED AND STORED IMPROPERLY. THEY POSE A
RISK OF SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURIES. FIREARMS
CAN BE ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS TO CHILDREN WHEN
THEY ARE STORED IN AN IRRESPONSIBLE AND UNSAFE
MANNER. FOR YOUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTH-
ERS, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU KEEP YOUR FIREARM
LOCKED AND UNLOADED IN A SECURE PLACE. THE
AMMUNITION SHOULD BE STORED IN A SEPARATE,
SECURE LOCATION WHEN IT IS NOT IN USE. SAFE AND
SECURE STORAGE OF YOUR FIREARM IS ONE OF THE
MOST IMPORTANT RULES OF FIREARM SAFETY. YOUR
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY RESULT IN SERI-
OUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU OR OTHERS.
AL
WAYS SECURE YOUR FIREARM IN A MANNER THAT
WILL
PREVENT UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS.
Whenever your
firearm is not in use, keep it unloaded and locked. Your safety
and the safety of others requires that you always secure and
store your firearm in a manner that will prevent unauthorized
access. Never leave a firearm unattended unless it is locked,
unloaded and secured.
ALWAYS USE THE LOCK PROVIDED BY SMITH & WES-
SON TO SECURE YOUR FIREARM. Please read and follow
the instructions packaged separately for the use of this lock. A
lock, when properly used, can be an effective tool in prevent-
ing unauthorized access to your firearm. There are other alter-
native locks and safe storage containers available in the mar-
ketplace which may also be appropriate for your particular
needs. Consult your local gun shop, hardware store, or local
police department for guidance on the variety of other safe
storage devices or practices which may be appropriate for
your particular needs. By purchasing this firearm you have
accepted the responsibility of safely securing the firearm at all
times and preventing its unauthorized use. Never assume that
the use of this lock alone is sufficient to safely secure your
firearm. It is your personal responsibility to select and use
whatever measures or practices that will enable you to be
absolutely certain that your firearm is secure at all times.
WARNING: NEVER LOCK A LOADED FIREARM AND
NEVER LOAD A LOCKED FIREARM!!
