firearm in the horizontal position. That is, in the normal
firing position. For example, the muzzles are forward or
front; the buttstock is rearward or rear; the trigger is
downward or underneath; the sight plane is upward or on
top. For general parts terminology, refer to Figure 1A.
The Select is also shown disassembled to the extent
necessary in order to follow instructions contained in this
book (Figure 1B). Details of the action are also shown

Throughout this owner’s manual the “action” refers to
the mechanism of this shotgun that secures the shell in
the chamber.
