3 Never rely solely on your firearms mechanical safety features. Your personal safe handling of your firearm will only ensure the safe use of your firearm. The firearms mechanical safeties are not a substitute for good common sense. These mechanical safeties are merely a supplement to your personal safe handling of a firearm. Keep your finger off the trigger guard and trigger and do not touch the trigger or trigger guard until you are ready to fire. Make sure that no other objects can touch the trigger. The gun should be unloaded when climbing a tree or crossing obstacles such as rough terrain, streams, creeks, or fences with a loaded firearm. The barrel must be clear of all obstructions before loading and firing. Before using the firearm completely unload the firearm and check the barrel for any obstructions or debris. Never let sand, dirt, water, snow, mud or other materials enter the barrel. Warning, excess lubricants or grease can dangerously increase pressure from firing and may cause barrel to burst when firing. If barrel is obstructed, remove ammunition and clean barrel immediately. Every firearm is designed to use specific ammunition of a certain gauge or caliber. Never use the wrong gauge, caliber, wrong ammunition, or non-standard, or "hand loaded" ammunition which has not been subjected to internal ballistic pressure testing. Always read and follow the manufactures instructions on the ammunition box. 556 and 223 while being the same basic size have different charges and the firearm must be rated for 556 in order to fire 556. Never fire 556 from a 223 rated firearm. Be careful as ammo may fit in firearms that are not rated for that ammunition. Make sure ammunition is correct for the firearm and do not guess or assume it is OK. If you are uncertain contact the manufacturer, a gunsmith or a knowledgeable dealer. Be sure of your target and the surrounding area and make sure there is no way to hit unseen people, property or animals. DO NOT fire unless you know exactly where your shot is going, and what it will strike and could strike if you miss. Make sure the shot has a safe back stop, such as a hillside or sand. WARNING Bullets can ricochet on surfaces such as rock and water. Do not fire into the sky as a falling bullet can still be deadly.
