Function testing the Vortek StrikerFire™ system

1. Push forward on the striker

button until it locks forward
in the cocked position. You
should hear an audible click
when it locks into the
cocked position and a red
line should be visible in the
striker button channel.

2. Press down on the striker

de-cocking button on the
top of the striker button to
de-cock the striker. When
you press down on this
button the striker button
should return to it’s at rest
position and the red line in
the striker button channel
should not be visible.


3. Press forward on the striker

button to cock the rifle as
you did in Step 1 but this
time to de-cock pull on the
barrel catch lever. When
you pull on the barrel catch
lever when the striker is
cocked, the striker will de-
cock and the button will
return to it’s at rest de-
cocked position.

CAUTION: IF THE STRIKER BUTTON DOES NOT
RETURN TO IT’S “AT REST” DE-COCKED POSITION
THEN THE RIFLE IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY
AND YOU NEED TO ADDRESS THIS BEFORE
CONTINUING WITH THIS FUNCTION TEST.
PLEASE REFER TO SECTION 15 ON CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE.
