USE OF SAFETY
1. Your firearm comes equipped with an effective, well-designed safety
device. HOWEVER, NEVER RELY COMPLETELY ON ANY SAFETY
MECHANISM. The best safety mechanism is your own common sense:
USE IT! Always handle your firearm as though you expect the safety
NOT to work.
2. While handling any firearm, NEVER ALLOW IT TO POINT AT any part
of your body or at another person. No harm will result if you obey this
rule, even if an accidental discharge occurs.
3. Leave the safety “ON” until you are ready to shoot and the firearm is
pointed at the target.
4. ALWAYS keep your finger OFF the TRIGGER and point the muzzle in
a safe direction when turning the safety “on” or “off”.
5. When applying the safety, be certain to move it fully into position. On
some firearms a red warning dot is located beside the safety; when the
safety is fully “on”, the red dot should be completely covered. Always
remember, “HALF-SAFE” IS NOT SAFE.
6. NEVER carry any firearm with a cartridge in the chamber without
placing the safety “on” (the only exceptions are double-action revolvers
and some double-action pistols which have automatic internal safeties
and which are not equipped with manual safeties).
7. For maximum safety never carry a firearm with a cartridge in the
chamber.
WARNING
Never rely completely on any safety mechanism. It is Not a substitute for
cautious gun handling. No safety, however positive or well-designed,
should be totally trusted. Like all mechanical devices, the safety is subject
to breakage or malfunction and can be adversely affected by wear, abuse,
dirt, corrosion, incorrect assembly, improper adjustment or repair, or lack
of maintenance. Moreover, there is no such thing as a safety which is
“childproof” or which can completely prevent accidental discharge from
improper usage, carelessness, or “horseplay”.
