CAUTION: Like all mechanical devices, an airsoft gun safety can fail. Even when the safety is “ON SAFE”, you should continue to handle the

airsoft gun in a safe manner.

TO PUT THE AIRSOFT GUN “ON SAFE:”

•Locate the safety on the left side of the airsoft gun.

•Push the safety lever all the way up into the “ON SAFE” (“S”) position (Fig. 2).

The safety is not “ON SAFE” unless (1) it is pushed all the way up into the “S” position and (2) the airsoft gun’s slide (see Fig. 1) cannot move.

KEEP THE AIRSOFT PISTOL IN THE “ON SAFE” (“S”) POSITION UNTIL YOU ARE ACTUALLY READY TO SHOOT. THEN PUSH THE SAFETY

TO THE “OFF SAFE” POSITION.

TO TAKE THE AIRSOFT GUN “OFF SAFE”:

•Push the safety all the way down into the “OFF SAFE” (“F”) position (Fig. 2).

IMPORTANT: This airsoft pistol also has a grip safety which is automatically engaged

when the airsoft pistol is NOT gripped firmly (Fig. 3).

•To disengage the grip safety, it is necessary to firmly grasp the back of the grip.

•When the safety lever on the airsoft gun is all the way down in the “Off SAFE” (“F”)”

position, and the grip safety is disengaged by the shooter firmly gripping the

airsoft pistol, the airsoft pistol can be fired.

of the front sight (Fig. 10).

the airsoft gun (section 5A), aim and pull the trigger to fire.
