STORE YOUR FIREARM SO THAT CHILDREN CANNOT GAIN ACCESS
TO IT.
It is your responsibility to ensure that children under the age of 18 or other
unauthorised persons do not gain access to your
rearm.
To reduce the
risk of accidents involving children, unload your
rearm, lock it and
store the ammunition in a separate locked location.
Please note that
devices intended to prevent accidents - for example, cable locks, chamber
plugs, etc., - may not prevent use or misuse of your
rearm by a determined
person. Firearm storage in a steel gun safe may be more appropriate
to reduce the likelihood of intentional misuse of a
rearm by a child or
unauthorised person.
4.
NEVER SHOOT AT WATER OR AT A HARD SUR-
FACE.
Shooting at the surface of water or at a rock or other
hard surface increases the chance of ricochets or
fragmentation of the bullet or shot, which can result
in the projectile striking an unintended or peripheral
target.

KNOW THE SAFETY FEATURES OF THE FIREARM YOU ARE USING,
BUT REMEMBER: SAFETY DEVICES ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR
SAFE HANDLING PROCEDURES.
Never rely solely on a safety device to prevent an accident. It is imperative
that you know and use the safety features of the particular
rearm you
are handling, but accidents can best be prevented by following the safe
handling procedures described in these safety rules and elsewhere in the
product manual. To further familiarise yourself with the proper use of this
or other
rearms, take a Firearms Safety Course taught by an expert in
rearms use and safety procedures.

PROPERLY MAINTAIN YOUR FIREARM.
Store and carry your
rearm so that dirt or lint
does not accumulate in the working parts. Clean
and oil your
rearm, following the instructions
provided in this manual, after each use to prevent
corrosion, damage to the barrel or accumulation of
impurities which can prevent use of the
rearm in an
emergency. Always check the bore and chamber(s)
prior to loading to ensure that they are clean and
