L. Dry Firing

Going through the actions of cocking, aiming and pulling the trigger of an
unloaded gun is known as dry firing. Dry firing can be useful to learn the
feel of your new Kimber rifle. Be certain the rifle is unloaded and pointed in
a safe direction even when practicing. Your new Kimber rifle can be dry
fired without damage to the firing pin or other components.

M. Maintenance

This rifle should be checked periodically by competent gunsmiths to ensure
proper function and replacement of any worn or damaged part. This is best
performed at the factory by Kimber trained gunsmiths.

N. Lead Warning

Discharging firearms in poorly ventilated areas, cleaning firearms, or
handling ammunition may result in exposure to lead and other chemicals
known to cause birth defects, reproductive harm, cancer, and other serious
physical injury. Have adequate ventilation at all times. Wash hands
thoroughly after exposure.

O. Scope Mounts and Bases

The model 84M rifle receiver is drilled and tapped for Kimber two piece
contoured scope mount bases. The front scope mount base is different from
the rear. Order only Kimber rifle scope mount base in sets. They are
available from your dealer or from our customer service department in
Yonkers, NY. Remember that you will need one base for the front and one
for the rear. The screws and wrench are supplied with the bases.

The Kimber scope mount bases will accept Redfield, Leupold and Burris
rotating front dovetails and windage adjustable rear ring sets.

Before ordering scope rings is very important to first decide on the scope
you want to fit. This will have a bearing on the height of the rings you need
to order.

Most styles of rings come in at least three different heights. Medium height
rings should be adequate for all standard size scopes. Low and high rings are
available for special applications.
