do not touch the tRiggeR until you aRe
actually Ready to fiRe the Pistol.
Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction and your finger away from the trigger
when cocking any firearm.
never fire any firearm with your finger, hand, face, or other part of your body
over or adjacent to the ejection port, or in any position where you may be struck
by reciprocating movement of the breech. Both the ejection of empty cartridge
cases and the movement of the breech are part of the normal operating cycle
of firearms, and pose no safety hazard to the shooter if the firearm is held in a
normal grip and fired at arm’s length.
never allow other persons to stand beside you where they might be struck by an
ejected cartridge case. The case is hot, and may be ejected with sufficient force to
cause a burn, cut, or other injury. Wear safety glasses to protect eyes. Make certain
there is a clear, unobstructed path for safe ejection of the fired case. remember,
the case may bounce off a hard object nearby and strike you or someone else.
