LOADING AND UNLOADING
CAUTION: WHEN LOADING AND UNLOADING ALWAYS PREPARE THE RIFLE
BY HAVING THE SAFETY ON AND THE RIFLE POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION.
1. Load the magazine by inserting the cartridges one at a time into
the magazine [see figure 3].
Place the rifle on safety and point it
in a safe direction.
2. Insert the magazine into the magazine well with the rear of the
magazine slightly lower than the front. When the front of the
magazine is fully inserted, firmly rock the magazine up and to the
rear until it locks [see figure 4]. You may have to push hard
to accomplish this. When the magazine is properly in place it
cannot be removed without pressing the magazine release.
3. Pull the operating rod handle and thus the bolt, fully to the rear
and release it smartly. If done properly a cartridge should be in
the chamber and the rifle ready to fire after the safety is moved to
the off position. Do not touch the operating rod while it moves
forward, as it needs the fast forward movement to strip a cartridge
from the magazine, push it into the chamber and lock up.
