1. General procedure for preventing and elimination of stoppages: With proper
maintenance storage and handling; the rifle is reliable in use. However, as a
result of careless handling, dirty parts, low-grade rounds, and also as a result of
wear of the parts caused by extensive use, normal operation of the rifle can be
affected, causing stoppages during fire. The majority of stoppages can be easily
eliminated simply by cocking the rifle that is by bringing to the rear the bolt
carrier and releasing it.
To Prevent Stoppages:
1. Prepare the rifle for firing properly.
2. Inspect, clean, and lubricate the rifle.
3. Carefully observe the cleanliness and operation of bolt carrier, bolt, gas
channels, and magazines.
4. Perform timely maintenance.
5. Carefully inspect ammunition before firing.
6. Fire only new serviceable and clean ammunition.
7. Disassemble and clean the rifle whenever it is dirty. If the rifle is used in
extremely cold weather a considerable period of time, before loading it is neces-
sary to move the bolt carrier forward and rearward several times
manually. If a stoppage occurs whereas a chambered round fails to fire,
continue to point the rifle in a safe direction and wait approximately 30 seconds.
This is to avoid possible delay detonation of a hangfire type malfunctioning
cartridge. Recock the rifle immediately manually and continue firing, if
recocking the rifle does not eliminate the stoppage, it is necessary to ascertain the
cause and correct it.

SAFETY FIRST
Firearms can be dangerous and can cause serious injury or
death. Proper and safe firearms handling is the responsibil-
ity of anyone who touches or uses a firearm. Safety has to
be the primary consideration of anyone using a firearm.
When purchasing a firearm, you assume responsibility for
its safe use, storage, and transportation. Particularly, it is
critical that firearms be kept from unauthorized use, and
this includes children. Your responsibility also includes,
but is not limited to, the need to protect yourself and others
from injury resulting from the misuse or abuse of a firearm.
»Treat firearms as though they are loaded.
»Always be aware of where the muzzle is pointed.
»Carry your firearm in a way that will preclude accidental injury to
yourself or others in the event you should stumble, fall, or drop the
firearm.
»Before shooting, make certain the barrel has no obstructions.
»Do not allow a firearm or ammunition to be left unattended.
Secure both the firearm and ammunition from access by unauthorized
people, including children.
»When shooting, always be certain that the area beyond the target,
including the backstop, is clear and safe. Also make certain that shots
fired present no safety hazards for yourself, or others.
»Always use both ear and eye protection when shooting.
»Always use factory loaded ammunition designed for and intended
to be used in the firearm you are shooting. It must be the proper
caliber (gauge)and type for your firearm.

ger into the trigger guard until you are ready to shoot.
»When not using the firearm, ensure that it is unloaded.
