TO EXTRACT AND EJECT A CHAMBERED CARTRIDGE

When the pistol is fired, the same gas pressure that drives the bullet forward also acts

through the cartridge case to push the bolt to the rear. The action causes extraction and

ejection of the fired cartridge case. If a cartridge fails to fire or if the shooter wishes to

eject the chambered cartridge manually, follow the procedure To Unload step 3. When

the bolt is operated by hand, there can be a failure to extract the cartridge from the

chamber, or a failure to eject the cartridge clear of the pistol. These failures usually are

the result of the bolt not being pulled rearward vigorously and then released. From the

foregoing, it is clear that the gun user must:

1. Always visually check the chamber and the breech-face after opening the bolt to

eject a chambered cartridge. If the bolt is not vigorously retracted when being

operated by hand, the extracted cartridge can be ejected into the magazine-

well or remain held to the breech-face by the extractor.

2. Thoroughly clean the chamber and the extractor as often as necessary. If an

empty magazine is in the pistol when the bolt is being hand retracted to extract

a cartridge, the cartridge may drop on top of the magazine or remain held to the

breech-face by the extractor. Then when the bolt goes forward, the cartridge will

be chambered again!

Remember  always remove the magazine before clearing the chamber, and visually

ensure that no cartridges remain in the gun.

TO CLEAR A MALFUNCTION (JAM)

1. Be certain the muzzle is continually pointed in a safe direction.

2. If possible, remove the magazine. It may be necessary to manually remove a

jammed cartridge that has only been partially stripped from the magazine. If

so, use extreme care. Move the bolt all the way to its rearward position and

hold it firmly with one hand, before attempting to clear the jam. Moving the

bolt fully to the rear may bring the jammed cartridge along.

Keep your face away from the ejection port during this operation. When at-

tempting to clear a jam, use only wood tools so that the cartridge will not be

damaged or the primer ignited. A 3/16 pointed hardwood dowel is useful.

3. Visually check to make sure that all cartridges have been removed from the

pistol. Safely dispose of any cartridges involved in a malfunction incident. Do

not use damaged ammunition in any firearm.

Any auto-loading pistol may occasionally malfunction. If a cartridge hangs up, jams or binds

when being chambered, do not attempt to force it into the chamber by pushing or striking the

bolt. Carefully remove it. Most failures of a cartridge to feed or to chamber properly are caused

by a damaged magazine, incorrect gun handling, insufficient lubrication, or improper or

oversized ammunition. Whatever the cause, the user of the pistol must, above all, recog-

nize that any cartridge jam can result in the very potentially dangerous situation of a
