Caution: Read this manual carefully before handling and loading the pistol. WARNING: Always ensure that the safety is fully engaged until ready to fire. A safety is fully engaged only when the safety can move no further into the safe position. A safety which is not fully engaged will not prevent weapon discharge. BASIC SAFETY • A loaded firearm has the potential to kill. Intelligently handled it is safe. • An accident is always the result of basic safety rules neglect. • Accident prevention is user responsibility. • Always treat a firearm as if it were loaded. • Never point a firearm at anything you don't want to shoot. • Before handling and loading a firearm, be sure you know how it functions. • Be sure to use correct and undamaged ammunition. • Be sure your firearm is clean - before loading inspect the barrel to insure it is perfectly clean and free of foreign objects. Shooting with an obstruction in the barrel such as dirt, mud, grease, lodged bullet or jacket, residues, etc., can cause barrel bulging and/or rupture. • Never shoot at a flat surface or water. • Avoid alcoholic beverages or drugs before and during shooting. • Avoid hard hitting or dropping of a loaded firearm. • Store firearms and ammunition separately, beyond the reach of children. Be sure cartridge chamber is empty. • To avoid corrosion during storage, thoroughly clean the firearm and protect all metal surfaces with a light film of good grade gun oil. Store pistol unwrapped in a container placed in a ventilated area. Store ammunition in a separate container placed in a cool ventilated area. Shooting glasses and earplugs: Shooting glasses are a must; chances of gas, gunpowder and dirt particle blow-back are remote but do exist. Earplugs reduce the chance of temporary or permanent loss of hearing when shooting. Firearms Safety Course: To familiarize yourself with the proper use of firearms, attend a Firearms Safety Course in your area. Remember - only YOU are responsible for the firearm in your hands. Prevent accidents by knowing its function. HANDLE IT WITH RESPECT NOT FEAR. Safety devices on firearms are EXTRAS and are not substitutes for safe handling. 1
