HANDLING IN GENERAL
This revolver has an internal safety and does not require an unloaded chamber
under the hammer. However, it is a good safety practice and we recommend that
you keep one chamber empty in the cylinder and rest the hammer on this empty
chamber.
This revolver has an internal safety device that keeps the hammer from striking
the firing pin except when the hammer is all the way back in the fully cock
position and the trigger is pulled completely to the rear. After each shot, the
trigger must return to the forward position. If it does not, unload the revolver
immediately and do not use it until it has been repaired by European American
Armory Corp. or a competent gunsmith.
This is a double action revolver and thus, you cock the hammer by pulling the
trigger. Always keep your finger off the trigger while handling this firearm. The
only time your should pull the trigger is when firing the revolver or when carefully
lowering the hammer. Never force the trigger or hammer to move.
