the shooter and bystanders behind the shooter.
When an empty cartridge is correctly ejected it will
fall to the ground in an area behind and to the right
of the shooter.
IN THE CASE OF A MISFIRE
Only rarely will modern factory ammunition
experience a misfire. If this ever happens to you
when shooting your Model 92 please follow these
instructions carefully.
CAUTION: IN CASE OF MISFIRE, KEEP THE
BARREL POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION,
PLACE THE MANUAL HAMMER STOP IN
THE “ON” POSITION AND CAREFULLY
OPEN ACTION WHILE AVOIDING DIRECT
EXPOSURE TO THE BREECH BY
YOURSELF AND OTHERS.
Carefully inspect the ejected cartridge. If the primer
is indented, the cartridge should be disposed of in a
manner that would prevent accidental injury to you
or others. If there is no indentation, your gun has
malfunctioned and should be serviced by a qualified
gunsmith or by a U.S. Repeating Arms Company
Authorized Repair Center (ARC).
It is important that you be fully familiar and totally
competent with your rifles handling and operation
procedures. With the safety in the on position, it is
possible to cock the hammer and pull the trigger, and
then, when the cartridge fails to fire, think the rifle
has misfired. However, you may have merely forgotten
to move the safety to the off position. In either
case, always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe
direction until you determine the cause.
