PRIMING THE T/C ENCORE CONT’D

Handling 209 primers can be made easier with the (Figure 9)

primer/deprimer tool (T/C part #7760) that is sold as an accesso-

ry. Slide a 209 primer into the slot of the tool as shown in the dia-

gram below. To prime the gun, place the protruding part of the

primer into the hole in the breech plug. Once the primer has

been inserted, pull the tool away from the gun while leaving the

209 primer in the breech plug’s primer pocket. To remove a 209

primer from the breech plug, push this forked end under the rim

of the primer. As you push the tool forward, the primer will lift out

of its hole allowing you to grasp the primer with your fingers and

remove it from the gun.

If you decide not to fire; make sure the gun is always pointed in a

safe direction and remove the 209 primer from the breech plug

primer pocket.
