Warning:
This rifle can be dangerous if it is not used

Rifle accidents would not occur if the
following rules of shooting safety were
observed.
The Ten Commandments of Firearms
Safety
•Learn the mechanical and handling
characteristics of the firearm you are
using.
•Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe
direction.
•Firearms should be unloaded when not
in use.
•Be sure the barrel is clear of obstructions
before using.
•Be sure of your target before you shoot.
•Wear shooting glasses and ear protection
when you shoot.
•Never climb a tree or fence with a loaded firearm.
•Don’t shoot at a hard surface or at water.
•Never transport a loaded firearm.
•Avoid alcoholic beverages or drugs when
shooting or handling a gun.
Please note:
There is no substitute for personal
responsibility and common sense in the
handling, use and storage of firearms.
Securely store your unloaded guns away
from access by children or unauthorized
adults.
General handling of rifles and
pistols
Although it can be assumed that shooters
are familiar with the following rules we
would like to emphasize them once again
for reasons of safety.
All firearms are hazardous objects.
Extraordinary care has to be dedicated to
their use and storage.
1. Treat every rifle as though it was loaded.
Do not take anyone’s word or automatically
assume it is not loaded. Check your rifle
personally each time you handle it. The safe
and courteous way to carry a rifle when
you are with others is to leave the bolt open
so that they can easily see that the rifle
cannot be fired. Make sure that the rifle is
not loaded when you stop shooting. Make
sure your rifle is unloaded before every
transport. Never pick up your rifle with your
finger on the trigger or the trigger guard.
2. Whenever you pick up your rifle, point
the muzzle at the ground. Always point the
muzzle of the barrel in a safe direction.
Never pull a rifle towards you by the
muzzle.
3. Only use your rifle in approved shooting
ranges. Shoot your rifle only under good
visibility and daylight conditions. If you use
your rifle in an indoors range, make sure it
is adequately ventilated. Make sure that
there is a safe bullet trap which can be seen
from all sides and that there is no one in
the vicinity of your target. Be absolutely sure
of a safe backstop and target. Never fire
at a hard, smooth surface or water. Never
21
shoot at a skyline target or into the air. Do
not shoot at anything from which a bullet
might ricochet. Never fire your rifle with the
muzzle in the water or against any other
material to avoid an accident or damage
of your rifle.
4. Be sure that you use the correct am-
munition. The correct caliber can be seen
on your rifle. Load your rifle only when you
are at the range and ready to shoot. Use
only genuine ANSCHÜTZ magazines. Do
not exceed the stated magazine capacity.
Alterations to the rifle or the use of nonANSCHÜTZ magazines and accessories
may cause malfunctions.
5. Always keep your rifle clean. Be sure
the bore is not obstructed by dirt, water,
grease or any other foreign materials.
Never try to shoot out any obstruction.
6. Serious injury and damage can result
from the use of the wrong ammunition, bore
obstructions, or incorrect cartridge components.
7. Place the safety fully into „S“ or „F“
position - never inbetween. Always keep
safety in full „safe“ position until ready to
fire. Do not put your finger on the trigger
when operating the safety or whenever you
are not ready to shoot.
8. When not in use your rifle should be
stored in a locked and secure place
accessible only to you. Check first to make
sure it is unloaded. Store the rifle with
uncocked trigger. Store ammunition in a
separate and secure place. It is your special
responsibility to make sure that at all times
and especially when you are not present
your rifle is well secured, out of any reach
of children and other unauthorized persons
and in no way accessible to them. For the
safe storage of your rifle even in a locked
cabinet or safe the use of an additional
trigger lock is recommended.
Only give your rifle to authorized persons.
Never let your rifle be used by anyone who
is not familiar with the safe handling of a
rifle and these instructions. This rifle must
only be used by a responsible adult or
under his or her supervision.
9. Watch for any change in the operation
of your rifle which might impair its safety.
The safety is only guaranteed as long as
the firearm is in faultless condition. If you
suspect or note a defect or malfunction, stop
using it immediately, unload the rifle, make
sure that it is not under pressure and send it
to a competent gunsmith, the factory or its
recommended repair station for inspection.
Note: Apart from normal cleaning the rifle
must only be disassembled by an
authorized gunsmith. Please note that your
firearm must also be checked by an
authorized gunsmith when it has been
impaired by external conditions such as
corrosion etc. or when it dropped. When
you assemble or disassemble your firearm,
never try to do it by force. Unqualified
handling or disassembly can cause injuries
or irreparable damage of the rifle.
10. Your rifle should always be handled
with extreme care. Make sure that it is never
dropped or placed in such a way that it
can fall. For transport purposes your rifle
should be dry and clean. We recommend
an approved protective gun case.
22
11. You must be in good physical condition
and mental health and not under the
influence of any substance (drugs, alcohol)
which might impair vision, dexterity or
judgement. Do not use your rifle when you
are tired. Tiredness may result in a loss of
control.
12. Clean your hands carefully after
shooting and cleaning your ANSCHÜTZ
product. Residues of bullets, powder or oil
might impair the health of your skin.
13. Your ANSCHÜTZ rifle has been
carefully built and inspected by skilled
technicians to provide maximum efficiency.
The service life depends on the owner’s
care and on cleaning following this
instruction leaflet.
Ear and eye protection
You should always use approved hearing
protection and approved shatterproof eye
protection while shooting. Please remember
persons near you to also wear hearing
protection and approved shatterproof eye
protection.
Laws
Please observe the corresponding
regulations and laws for the use of firearms
in your country. Please also observe the
corresponding safety rules of sports
shooting.
