19.Check ammunition to be sure it is the right size and caliber, and that it is not dented.

20.Use a proper holster and draw only if you intend to shoot.

21.NEVER cock the gun until you are ready to shoot.

22.Dry firing is bad for this gun.

23.While handling any firearm, never allow it to point at any part of your body or at another person. No harm should result if you obey this rule, even if an accidental discharge occurs.

24.Firearms have “SIDE BLAST”, hot gases and particles escaping at high speeds to the sides of the gun. Keep people behind and away from you and keep your hands and body clear of the sides of the pistol when firing.

25.If there is any reason to suspect that a bullet is obstructing the barrel, immediately unload the firearm and look through the bore. It is not sufficient to merely look in the chamber.

26.Treat this gun as a precision instrument.

27.Old or reloaded ammunition may be dangerous. We recommend against using it.

28.Never carry any handgun in your pocket, purse or waistband. Use a pistol case or proper holster with safety flap or strap.

29.Don’t try to change your gun’s trigger pull, because alterations of trigger pull usually affect sear engagement and may cause accidental discharge.

30.Write to us concerning any items or circumstances which might relate to your safety and the operation of our products.
