TO LOAD MAGAZINE — With the safety button fully protruding from the right
side of the trigger guard indicating the “ON” (SAFE) position and the bolt in the
forward (closed) position, hold the shotgun with the bottom of the receiver
facing upward. Press the bolt release as shown in Figure 7a.

While keeping the bolt release button depressed, push the shotshell into the
loading port depressing the elevator as shown in Figure 7b. This will expose the
magazine tube opening within the receiver.

Release the button and continue pushing shotshell into the magazine tube until
the rim of the shell is past the shell stop as shown in Figure 7c. Repeat the above
sequence to load each additional shell.

After the last shotshell is loaded into magazine, depress bolt release to ensure
elevator returns to its starting (closed) position.
