2. Place the manual hammer stop in the “off” position
(See Figure 14) by pushing it from right to left.
YOUR RIFLE IS NOW READY TO FIRE.
3. Firmly shoulder your gun, take aim and when on target
pull the trigger smoothly, without jerking. After firing, let
the trigger return to the fully forward position.
SPECIAL NOTE ON TRIGGER PULL: When pulling
the trigger an initial “take-up” section can be felt. This
longer, initial pull is an added safety feature of your
Model 94. It serves to drop an internal hammer block
that is positioned between the hammer and receiver. The
hammer block prevents the hammer from striking the fir-
ing pin until you pull the trigger to fire the rifle.
T O CHAMBER ANOTHER ROUND FOR THE NEXT SHOT —
1. Swing the finger lever fully down extracting and eject-
ing the fired cartridge case from the chamber.
2. Close the action by returning the finger lever upward.
The closing of the action will transfer a new cartridge
from the magazine to the chamber, leaving the hammer
in a cocked “ready to fire” position.
3. WHEN THROUGH FIRING ALWAYS IMMEDI-
ATELY PLACE THE MANUAL HAMMER STOP
IN THE “ON” POSITION (SEE FIGURE 15), AND
THE HAMMER IN THE SAFETY (REBOUND)
POSITION (REFER BACK TO FIGURE 6).
To fire additional cartridges from the magazine, simply
work the finger lever downward fully and return it to the
original upward position and repeat the firing sequence
again.
