Interchangeable ribs

Before starting any operation on your shotgun,
make sure that the chamber and the magazine
are unloaded!
(Carefully read the instructions on gun loading
and unloading).

The shotgun is fitted as standard with a low, 8
mm wide rib.

The rib can be easily replaced, following the
instructions below:

1) Unscrew and remove the rib fixing screw

from the front end of the barrel, near the front
sight (fig. 64).

2) Lift and extract the rib from its seat on the bar-

rel pulling it forward (figs. 65-66).

3) Place the required rib, taking care to properly

insert the housings, then set the rib along the
barrel for the whole length (fig. 67).

4) Fix the rib with the fixing screw (fig. 68).

Changing the front sight

On shotguns with a carbon fibre rib, the red fibre
optic front sight can be changed for the yellow or
green fibre optic sight supplied.
