4. Ensure that the barrel is free of foreign matter, dirt, grease, oil, water, etc. before firing!
Even a small amount of dirt, excess grease or oil can damage the barrel and endanger you or
others present. Always be sure that only the correct ammunition in the correct calibre and in
flawless quality is used .
5. Before shooting, ensure that your target is perfectly safe!
Never shoot before you are fully certain where the bullet will hit. Be fully sure that the bullet will
be stopped directly behind the target, as the bullet is, of course, still dangerous even at long
distances. Take plenty of time to be absolutely sure before you pull the trig ger.
6. Always wear eye and ear protection!
Every shooter and every person in their immediate vicinity must wear protective glasses and
hearing protection as the noise can damage your hearing.
7. Never carry a loaded weapon on your person!
Only load the gun immediately before it is to be used. Never let a loaded gun fall and never throw
a loaded gun.
8. Never shoot at a hard surface or at water!
The bullet could ricochet uncontrolled and injure or kill you or a third party with the very high
force that propels it.
9. Never transport a loaded firearm!
Firearms must always be unloaded before being transported. A purposebuilt case or sheath
should be used for transporting firearms to and from the firing range.
10. Firearms must never be used if alcohol or other drugs have been consumed!
Alcohol, medication and other drugs affect your judgment, your corporal constitution and your
ability to think and act. Such firearms use is punishable by law.
