Mossberg Silver Reserve Serie Over/Under - Manual (Page 9)

FIRING
The barrel selector is integral to the safety button. The selector allows you to choose
the barrel that will fire first. To select the barrel that you will fire first, move the safety
button fully to the rear “ON” (SAFE) position and fully to the left to fire the top bar-
rel (selector exposes the “O”) or fully to the right to fire the lower barrel (selector
exposes the “U”) (Fig. 6).
Barrel Selectors – The “O” (over) and the “U” (under) located next to the selector
switch are for training purposes only. The selector must be moved fully to either
the left or right and must never be set in between these settings as damage to the
safety mechanism and/or selector switch can result.
While pointing the firearm at your intended target, push the safety button fully forward
to the “OFF” (FIRE) position. Place your index finger on the trigger and squeeze the
trigger fully rearward. This will discharge the cartridge. If both chambers were loaded,
pulling the trigger a second time will fire the other barrel.
Discharging firearms in poorly ventilated areas, cleaning firearms, or
handling ammunition may result in exposure to lead and/or substances
known to cause birth defects, reproductive harm and/or other serious
physical injury. Have adequate ventilation at all times. Wash hands
thoroughly after exposure.
Should the round fail to fire, keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction.
Move the safety button fully rearward to the “ON” (SAFE) position. Wait a
few moments and then remove the misfired round and keep it separate
from other ammunition. Do not attempt to re-fire a misfired round.
