CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
SUGGESTIONS
The Model 1892 will function better and more
reliably over a longer period of time if it is properly
maintained and kept clean.
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY CLEANING
PROCEDURES, ALWAYS MAKE CERTAIN
THERE ARE NO CARTRIDGES IN THE
CHAMBER, MAGAZINE OR ACTION/FEED
AREAS OF THE RIFLE.
You should clean your Model 1892 after every day of
shooting and more often if it becomes excessively
dirty. A minimum cleaning includes wiping down the
action and oiling key parts. Most regular mainte-
nance will also include cleaning the barrel. If you
encounter a function problem (tight action when
working the finger lever), be sure to give your gun a
thorough cleaning to see if it solves the problem
before seeking the services of our service facility or a
competent gunsmith.
To clean your firearm, follow this general outline:
30
Tap carefully.
Do not mar the
barrel or sight.
