Figure 1.
Components frequently referred to are identified. In these photographs the cocking piece is
shown cocked (protruding from the rear of the bolt sleeve) revealing the disassembly hole in the lower
portion of the cocked piece. The bolt stop (on the left side of the receiver) permits the bolt to be
withdrawn simply by pressing down lightly with the thumbnail.
The safety selector (show in the “Safe”
position) should be in the “Load-Unload” position when the bolt is being removed or being installed.
