oil can cause excessive pressure and result in serious
personal injury.
8. Keep barrel, chamber and action free of rust. Rust in
the barrel and chamber can cause excessive pressures
resulting in serious injury. A rusted, pitted or eroded
barrel should be replaced.
9. Use hearing protection to prevent ear damage from
repeated exposure to gunfire.
10. Always use proper shooting glasses to prevent eye
injury from flying particles.
11. Never carry a loaded gun in a motor vehicle or carry
one into a dwelling. Always carefully unload the gun
before entering a motor vehicle, a dwelling or an area
such as a camp. Always point a gun in a safe direction
while loading or unloading to prevent serious injury in
case of an accidental discharge. Never load in the house
or in your vehicle.
12. Never shoot at a hard, flat surface or at the surface
of water to avoid a ricochet and possible serious personal
injury to yourself or a bystander.
13. Store gun in a clean dry place out of reach of children
and separated from stored ammunition.
14. Never alter any parts of your gun. Any alterations or
adjustments that may become necessary to the operating
mechanism should be performed by a qualified gunsmith.
15. Hunting from elevated surfaces such as tree stands is
dangerous. Doing so may increase the risk of handling any
firearm. Always make certain that the stand being used is
safe, sturdy and stable. Always make certain your firearm
is unloaded when it is being taken up and down from the
stand. Always make certain that your firearm is not
dropped from the stand or dropped while it is being taken
up or down from the stand.
16. Discharging firearms in poorly ventilated areas, cleaning
firearms, or handling ammunition may result in exposure
to lead and other substances known to cause birth defects,
reproductive harm and other serious physical injury. Have
adequate ventilation at all times. Wash hands thoroughly
after exposure.
G ENERAL D ESCRIPTION /O PERATION
Your new Super X2 is one of several different versions and
configurations offered. The basic operating procedures are
the same for all of them. Where there are differences they
are pointed out in this manual for your convenience.
The Super X2 is a semiautomatic design that allows the
shooter to shoot followup shots by merely pulling the trigger,
firing the first shot, and then letting the gas piston system
automatically move a shell from the magazine to the
chamber where it is fired with a pull of the trigger.
