M AGAZINE P LUG
The 9410 is delivered with a three-shot adapter plug
included in the box. This plug limits magazine capacity to
two shells in compliance with federal migratory bird
(doves are migratory birds) regulations and regulations in
some states. If you do not wish to be limited to three shots
total — when it is not required by law — you can remove
the adapter plug.
WHEN REMOVING THE PLUG, BE CERTAIN
THERE ARE NO SHELLS IN THE MAGAZINE
OR CHAMBER AND KEEP THE BARREL AND
MAGAZINE POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION
AT ALL TIMES.
Remember, the plug and magazine cap are under spring
pressure, so care must be taken for safe removal. Always
point the end of the magazine away from your face and in
a safe direction. Never look directly down into the cap
end of the open magazine.
ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION WHEN
REMOVING AND INSTALLING THE MAGAZINE’S
THREE-SHOT PLUG.
If you misplace or break the adapter included with your
Model 9410, contact our parts department (Page 38).
