Manual

The term “single action” means that the hammer of your revolver must be manually drawn
fully backward, or“cocked”, before firing each shot. In the process of cocking your revolver, you
should note that there are three separate hammer positions, each one having its purpose:
A. “SAFETY”,
“TRANSPORT”,
“LOADING”,
“UNLOADING”
B. “FIRING”
C. “AFTER FIRING”
SAFETY
These guns have a hammer block safety in the frame. To activate the hammer safety block,
pull the hammer backward until you hear the first click. Lower the hammer into the safety posi-
tion. With the hammer in this position, the safety mechanism is activated. This patented device
places a steel insert between the hammer and the frame and is designed to prevent the gun
from firing accidentally. When the gun is not being used, always use your hammer block safety.
(See drawing “A”)
LOADING
Keeping your finger out of the trigger guard and off the trigger, draw the hammer back to the
first cock position which makes the cylinder free to rotate. Then, open the revolver as far as it
will open until the ejector returns to its normal position in the cylinder. Make certain you have
the exact calibre cartridges matching the exact calibre of your revolver. Then load one cartridge
in each chamber. Before closing your revolver, make sure that the hammer is in first cock posi-
tion. If the hammer is in full cock position (firing position) the firearm will not close. Do not insist
on closing because the hand is not in its correct position. Be careful because you could break
the hand.
Again you should practice this loading function without any cartridges until you are feel com-
fortable. Then, and only then, are you and your revolver ready for use.
