Always engage the safety mechanism by

moving the safety button to the shooter’s

right before handling, loading or unloading

the firearm.

When you are ready to FIRE the firearm, dis-

engage the Safety Mechanism by pushing the

Safety Button to the shooter’s left until the

button stops and the RED BAND MARKING IS

VISIBLE.

See Picture 4. You have now dis-

engaged the Safety Mechanism and the shot-

gun is ready to FIRE.

Do not touch the trigger

while moving the

safety button. Your fingers and all other

objects should be kept outside of the trigger

guard and away from the trigger until you are

actually ready to FIRE.

Never pull the trigger

when the Safety

Mechanism is in the “ON” or “SAFE” posi-

tion.

WARNING! The firearm will fire when the

trigger is pulled and the safety mechanism is

in the "OFF” or “FIRE" position.

Even when the safety

is engaged in the “ON”

or “SAFE” position, careless handling can

cause the firearm to discharge. See the Ten

Commandments of Firearm Safety

on page 2.

The Locking Device

This firearm was originally sold with a key-oper-

ated locking device to assist the owner in pro-

tecting against unauthorized use. These are stor-

age locking devices and the firearm should be

completely unloaded when stored or not in use.

Using a locking device cannot substitute for

securing your firearm and ammunition in sepa-

rate locked locations. See the Ten

Commandments of Firearm Safety.

THE LOCKING DEVICE DOES NOT ELIMINATE

THE NEED FOR SAFE GUN HANDLING AND

STORAGE, INCLUDING KEEPING THIS AND

EVERY GUN UNLOADED AND LOCKED IN A

SECURE PLACE WHEN NOT IN USE. READ AND

FOLLOW THESE AND OTHER SAFETY RULES IN

THIS INSTRUCTION BOOK. FAILURE TO READ,

UNDERSTAND AND OBEY THESE RULES CAN

RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR

DEATH. SEE THE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF

FIREARM SAFETY ON PAGE 2.

Keep your locking device engaged when your

firearm is not in use. Keep the keys in a

secure place, inaccessible to others. DO NOT

leave your keys or any ammunition with your

firearm, which should be kept unloaded and

locked in a safe place.

The Fore-end and Bolt Release

The action will open when the fore-end is

moved rearward. The bolt release is used to

unlock the bolt. The action can be opened

when the bolt release is activated by pushing

inward while moving the fore-end rearward.

See Picture 5.

WARNING! When the fore-end or action is

forward in the closed position and the safety

mechanism is in the “OFF” or “FIRE” posi-

tion, the shotgun can be discharged by

pulling the trigger.

The Trigger Assembly

Pulling the trigger DISCHARGES the firearm.

The trigger assembly of the Model 887™

NitroMag™ shotgun has been set at the

Remington factory for optimal trigger pull.

The factory settings provide a crisp, clean
