DON’T KEEP THIS TO YOURSELF

Now that you’re a gun owner you have the obligation to help ensure that shooting sports are safe for

everyone–participants and bystanders alike.You can do that by practicing these principles of firearm safety and

passing them on to others – especially new shooters. Set an example for beginners. Be a guide to their safe entry

into the exciting world of shooting sports. Invest your time and patience for the love of the sport and for its future.

After all, it’s your love of the sport that led you to buy a new Remington. Firearm ownership is a right

and privilege. It’s a right guaranteed in this nation’s Constitution. It’s a privilege which carries with it a

personal responsibility to use your firearm in a way which will ensure your safety and the safety of others.

The preservation of this right and privilege depends on the personal commitment of you and your fellow

shooters to the safe and responsible use of firearms. Let the Ten Commandments of Firearm Safety outlined in

the book guide you at all times. Teach and promote these rules whenever you can. Remember, firearm safety

depends on you! That’s the only way to really enjoy your new Remington firearm and to preserve sport

shooting

as we know it today.

WARNING: THIS FIREARM COULD CHAMBER A ROUND

if it is dropped or jarred with a

loaded magazine in place - either with the Bolt Carrier Assembly locked to the rear, or in its forward position.

WARNING: BEWARE OF DANGEROUS PROCEDURES

Be sure Cam Pin is installed in the Bolt Group. If it isn’t, your rifle can still fire and

MAY EXPLODE.

• If your rifle stops firing with a live round in the chamber of a hot barrel (a misfire),

REMOVE THE

CHAMBERED ROUND IMMEDIATELY!

However, if you are unable to remove the round within 10 seconds,

remove the magazine and wait 15 minutes

with the Rifle Pointing in a SAFE DIRECTION!

This way no

one will be hurt by a possible round “cooking-off” (i.e. the round detonating just from the heat of the barrel).

In any event, keep your face away from the ejection port while clearing a hot chamber.

• Whenever you are handling the rifle or clearing a chambered round, control the direction of the muzzle and

keep yourself clear of the Muzzle!

• If there is water in the barrel, do not fire the rifle.

IT COULD EXPLODE!

• If you hear a noticeable difference in sound or recoil is experienced,

STOP FIRING!

Either condition could

indicate an incomplete powder burn and/or a bullet stuck in the bore.
