9th COMMANDMENT

If Your Gun Fails to Fire When the Trigger is Pulled, Handle With Care.

If for some reason the ammunition doesn’t fire when you pull the trigger, stop and remember the 1st

Commandment of Firearm Safety – always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction. Keep your face away from

the breech, then put the safety on, carefully open the action, unload the firearm and dispose of the cartridge safely.

Remember that anytime there’s a shell in the chamber, your gun is loaded and ready to use. Even if you tried to

shoot and your gun didn’t fire, treat your firearm as if it could still discharge.

Always Wear Eye and Ear Protection When Shooting.

Your sight and hearing risk injury from shooting and should be protected at all times. Wear

protective shooting glasses to guard against falling shot, clay target chips, powder

residue, ruptured cartridge cases and even twigs and branches in the field. Also be sure

to wear eye protection when you’re disassembling or cleaning a gun so that tensioned

parts (like springs) and cleaning solvents don’t come in contact with your eyes. Continued

exposure to shooting noise can permanently damage your hearing. On the range, where

shooting volume is the loudest, be sure to use the maximum protection of a headset. And learn to use ear protection in

the field, especially in confined locations like duck blinds.

Be Sure the Barrel is Clear of Obstructions Before Shooting.

Before loading your gun, open the action and make sure there’s no ammunition in the chamber or magazine. Check

the barrel for any obstructions or debris. Even a small amount of snow, mud, excess lubricant or grease in the bore

can dangerously increase pressure and cause the barrel to bulge or burst when firing. Use a

cleaning rod and patch to wipe away anti-rust compounds or any other residues or obstructions in the barrel.

Never try to shoot out an obstruction by loading another shell and firing!

When firing, rely on your instincts. If the noise or recoil of your firearm seems weak, stop everything, unload your

firearm and be sure nothing is lodged in the barrel. Remember the 12/20 burst? That’s what can happen when the

barrel is obstructed. So always be sure you’re using the correct ammunition in your firearm and that it’s free of

obstructions.

Don’t Alter or Modify Your Gun and Have it Serviced Regularly.

Your firearm has been designed to operate according to certain factory specifications. You’ll jeopardize your safety

and that of others around you by attempting to alter its trigger, mechanical safety or other mechanisms. So never

alter or modify your firearm in any way.

Like any mechanical device, a firearm is subject to wear. It must be maintained and

periodically serviced to assure optimum safety and performance. Only a qualified

service facility should service, repair or modify your Remington

firearm. Consult

your instruction book for instructions on how to send your firearm to the factor

y or

for the location of the nearest Remington Authorized Service Center.

Proper cleaning and lubrication are also important to firearm maintenance and are

necessar

y to assure accuracy

, safety and reliability

. Before cleaning, always make

sure that your gun is completely unloaded. And always clean the barrel from the

chamber end to the muzzle when possible.
