NEVER HANDLE ANY FIREARM THAT IS LOADED OR UNLOADED WHEN ALCOHOL OR DRUGS HAVE BEEN CONSUMED. BECOMING FAMILIAR WITH YOUR PISTOL (BEFORE ACTUALLY SHOOTING) No safety feature can replace proper firearms training, safe gun handling practices and common sense! When handling this or any firearm, always point the firearm in a safe direction. And always handle this or any other firearm as if it where loaded.
MAGAZINE OUT SAFETY This feature is not apparent on visual inspection. When the magazine is removed from the pistol grip area, it disables the trigger and firing mechanism. DANGER INSTALLING AN EMPTY MAGAZINE INTO THE PISTOL AND PULLING THE TRIGGER WILL FIRE A CARTRIDGE IN THE CHAMBER. Relying on the magazine out safety can result in serious injury or death. Always practice safe gun handling techniques and never point the firearm at something you do not intend to shoot.
SLIDE HOLD OPEN After firing the last round in the magazine, the slide will hold open. This allows both the operator and the bystanders to visually check the chamber and magazine area to make certain the pistol is empty. ADJUSTABLE REAR SIGHT (OPTIONAL) To allow for more precise target shooting, your model Nine pistol incorporates adjustments for elevation and windage. Combining the full adjustment with a high visibility white border will enhance target shooting accuracy.
WARNING Never carry with cartridge in the chamber even though the manual safety is activated to the “safe” position. AT ALL TIMES KEEP THE SAFETY IN THE “SAFE” POSITION UNLESS YOU ARE READY TO SHOOT. These safety features do not replace safe gun handling practices. Never point a cocked firearm at anything you do not intend to shoot. NEVER CARRY A FIREARM IN A COCKED & LOADED CONDITION.
PREPARING TO SHOOT (ACTUALLY SHOOTING) Always point your pistol in a safe direction. Any firearm is dangerous if not handled properly. With the pistol pointed in a safe direction, insert the loaded magazine into the magazine well and push the magazine firmly until it locks into place. IMPORTANT Do not forcefully strike the base of magazine to lock in to place. Push it firmly into the pistol. Otherwise, you could damage the magazine and/or injure your hand.
UNLOADING YOUR PISTOL When you finish shooting and wish to unload or clear your pistol, follow the following procedure: Remove the magazine. Point the pistol in a safe direction, keeping fingers off the trigger, pull the slide back in one smooth continuous motion. The cartridge in the chamber will then eject through the side of the slide. Visually inspect to make certain no other rounds are present in the chamber or magazine area. You may then allow the slide to move forward.
