BEFORE USING YOUR REVOLVER
This
revolver has been treated with protective
oils before
leaving the
factory and must be thoroughly cleaned before use.
Wipe all exterior surfaces with
a clean
soft cloth
to remove excess
oil.
Swing the cylinder out of the frame by pulling the ejector rod (located
under the barrel) forward and with finger pressure,' push the cylinder to
the left and out of the frame.
Using
a cleaning
rod and patches of the proper size for your revolver,
push the patches through the bore, starting at the muzzle
end, untilthe
patches come
out clean. Clean each chamber of the cylinder
in the same
manner, starting at the breech end. If the revolver
is to be slored priorto
using,
a smanamount
of gun oil should be placed
on a patch and passed
through the bore and chambers. Be sure to clean again before use.
Return the cylinder into the frame by pulling the ejector rod forward and
carefully swinging the cylinder into the frame. Release the ejector rod,
making sure the cylinder is locked in place.
HOW THE FIRING MECHANISM OPERATES
All revolver models manufactured by New England Firearms have a
built-in "transfer-bar" type mechanism and may be fired in either the
"single" or "double" action mode. When the hammer is in the fully forward
position and the trigger is released, there is no contact made between the
hammer and the firing pin. This is the normal carrying position.
When the hammer is manually pulled back fully into the cocked position
(single action), the transfer-bar moves upward to form a bridge between
the hammer and the firing pin. When the hammer is in the cocked position
and the trigger is pulled and held, the hammer faUs striking the transfer~
bar, transferring the hammer blow to the firing pin. As soon as the trigger
is released, the transfer-bar drops down causing a void between the
hammer and firing pin. Pulling the trigger with the hammer fully forward
(double action), cocks and releases the hammer automatically with the
transfer~bar acting in the same manner as when fired single action.
AMMUNITION TO USE
USE ONLY FACTORY
LOADED CARTRIDGES OF THE CORRECT
CALIBER IN YOUR REVOLVER.
