As the owner of a irearm, you must undertake the full-time responsibility of
safe irearms handling for your own safety and the safety of those around you:
• Keep all irearms and ammunition out of the reach of children.
• Store your irearms and ammunition separately.
• Never store a loaded irearm.
• Never leave a loaded irearm unattended.
• Never transport a loaded irearm in a vehicle.
• Unload your irearm when you have stopped shooting and when you have to
climb a tree, fence, cross a slippery surface or have to transport it in a
vehicle.
• Do not load your irearm before you are in a place where it is safe to shoot
and keep your inger off the trigger until you are on target and have decided
to ire.
• Never shoot at water, rocks or any hard surface. Shots may glance off such
surfaces and cause injuries.
• Do not use alcohol or drugs before or while handling irearms.
• Do not touch trigger while the safety button is being engaged or disengaged.
Always point the muzzle of your irearm in a safe direction, regardless of whether
the irearm is loaded or unloaded.
Always treat every irearm as if it were loaded. Give your irearm to someone
with the action open (bolt fully rearward) and safety fully rearward in the “ON”
(SAFE) position after you verify the irearm is unloaded. Insist on the same
procedure when receiving a irearm from someone else. Learn the location of
all the safety features of your irearm and how they operate.
Wear eye and ear protection when shooting. Shooting without proper ear
protection can cause hearing damage. The use of eye protection during any
type of shooting is important to protect your eyesight.
Due to the heavy recoil of a shotgun, maintain an adequate distance between the
rear of the scope (if equipped) and your face at all times. Be certain the scope
installation does not interfere with access to, or the proper functioning of the
safety button.

Learn to clean your irearm thoroughly and make certain no oil, grease or other
materials are blocking the barrel. Obstructions of any kind can cause damage
to the irearm and may result in serious personal injury to the shooter and/or
others nearby.
Practice proper irearm maintenance and safety. Make sure all exposed metal
surfaces are coated with a thin ilm of oil, especially after exposure to damp
weather. (See proper section of this manual for cleaning instructions.) Do not
plug barrel or store in fabric-lined case which will absorb lubricants from the
irearms. Before using after storage, follow complete instructions stated in this
manual for refamiliarization with the irearm. A thorough inspection should be
performed before going into the ield. Have your irearm periodically checked by a
qualiied gunsmith.

Read and understand this entire manual and its safety warnings before handling this irearm.
mechanical safeTy
The safety button is located on the top rear portion of the receiver (Fig. 2) and must be
manually moved to the desired position by the shooter.
To put the safety in the “on” (safe) position, the safety button must be moved
fully rearward into the safety detent.
The button will now cover the red dot. The red
dot is a training aid used only to show the direction of the “ON” (SAFE) position and
should not be used as an indicator that the safety is “ON” or “OFF” (Fig. 2). Moving the
safety button forward toward the muzzle of the shotgun will put the safety in the “OFF”
(FIRE) position.
Remember, a irearm’s manual safety is a mechanical device which can never
replace safe irearm handling practices.
Never rely on any mechanical mechanism or safety device to prevent the
dangers of careless handling or pointing a irearm in an unsafe direction.
