FAILURE TO FOLLOW ANY OF THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
As a gun owner, you accept a set of demanding responsibilities. How seriously you take these responsibilities can be the difference between life and death. There is no excuse for careless or abusive handling of any firearm. At all times handle this firearm and all other firearms with intense respect for their power and potential danger. Please read and understand all of the cautions, warnings, notices, proper handling procedures and instructions outlined in your owner's manual before using your new firearm.
1. ALWAYS KEEP THE MUZZLE OF YOUR FIREARM POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE CERTAIN IT IS UNLOADED.
Never point any firearm at anything you do not intend to shoot. Be extremely alert and aware of all persons and property within the range of your ammunition.
2. NEVER RELY TOTALLY ON YOUR FIREARM'S MECHANICAL 'SAFETY' DEVICE. LIKE ANY MECHANICAL DEVICE, A 'SAFETY' CAN SOMETIMES FAIL; IT CAN BE JARRED OR INADVERTENTLY MANIPULATED INTO AN UNSAFE CONDITION.
The word 'safety' describes a firearm's trigger block mechanism, sear block mechanism, hammer block mechanism or firing pin block mechanism. Mechanical 'safeties' are designed to place your firearm in a safer status, and no guarantee can be made that the firearm will not fire even if the 'safety' is in the on safe position. Mechanical 'safeties' merely aid safe gun handling and are no excuse for pointing your firearm's muzzle in an unsafe direction. See 'Operation of the Safety' [in your firearm's owner's manual] for instructions on the operation of this firearm's 'safety.'
Remember, safe gun handling does not stop with your firearm's mechanical 'safety' devices, it starts there. Always treat this firearm with the respect due a loaded, ready-to-fire firearm.
Some firearms do not have a mechanical 'safety.' Many target firearms, lever-action firearms and pistols do not have manual 'safety' mechanisms. Therefore it is critical to read and understand the owner's manual for every firearm which explains the safe operation of the firearm.
While it is a good idea to test your firearm's mechanical 'safety' periodically for proper function, never test the 'safety' while your firearm is loaded or pointed in an unsafe direction.
3. WHENEVER YOU HANDLE ANY FIREARM, OR HAND IT TO SOMEONE, ALWAYS OPEN THE ACTION IMMEDIATELY AND VISUALLY CHECK THE FIREARM'S CHAMBER TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE FIREARM IS COMPLETELY UNLOADED.
Make certain the firearm does not inadvertently contain any ammunition. Remember, merely removing the magazine does not mean the chamber is unloaded. Always keep the chamber empty and the 'safety' in the on safe position unless shooting is imminent.
4. ALWAYS WEAR EAR AND EYE PROTECTION WHEN SHOOTING.
Unprotected, repeated exposure to gunfire can cause hearing damage. Wear hearing protection (shooting earplugs or muffs) to guard against such damage.
Wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes from flying particles. Allow proper distance (eye relief) between a scope and your eye when firing a scoped rifle, shotgun or pistol. Do not use unorthodox shooting methods that could cause the rearward travel of the slide or bolt of a firearm to contact your eyes, face or hands. Always keep a safe distance between the muzzle of your firearm and any persons nearby, as muzzle blast, debris and ejecting shells could inflict serious injury.
Always wear eye protection when disassembling and cleaning any firearm to prevent the possibility of springs, spring-tensioned parts, solvents or other agents from contacting your eyes.
5. KEEP ALL FIREARMS UNLOADED DURING TRANSPORT, EVEN WHEN STORED IN A HOLSTER, GUN CASE, SCABBARD OR OTHER CONTAINER.
6. DROPPING OR JARRING A LOADED FIREARM CAN CAUSE ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE.
This can occur even with the 'safety' in the on safe position. Be extremely careful while hunting or during any shooting activity to avoid dropping any firearm.
7. HUNTING FROM ELEVATED SURFACES SUCH AS TREESTANDS IS DANGEROUS.
Doing so may increase the risk of mishandling a firearm. The following rules should always be observed by you and those you hunt with. Always make certain that the stand being used is safe and stable. Always make certain that your firearm is unloaded when it is being taken up and down from the stand. Always make certain that your firearm is not dropped from the stand, or dropped while it is being taken up or down from the stand.
Remember, a loaded firearm may discharge when dropped, even with the 'safety' in the on safe position.
8. STORE YOUR FIREARM AND AMMUNITION SEPARATELY, WELL BEYOND THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
Take prudent safeguards to ensure your firearm does not become available to untrained, inexperienced or unwelcome hands. Store all firearms in secure, locked cases or a gun safe. Keep your firearm unloaded when not in use.
9. BEWARE OF BARREL OBSTRUCTIONS.
Mud, snow and an infinite variety of other objects may inadvertently lodge in a barrel bore. It only takes a small obstruction to cause dangerously increased pressures that can damage your firearm and cause serious injury to yourself and others.
BEFORE CHECKING FOR A BARREL OBSTRUCTION, BE CERTAIN YOUR FIREARM IS COMPLETELY UNLOADED, THERE IS NOT A LIVE SHELL IN THE CHAMBER AND THE 'SAFETY' IS IN THE ON SAFE POSITION.

BEFORE CHECKING FOR A BARREL OBSTRUCTION, BE CERTAIN YOUR FIREARM IS COMPLETELY UNLOADED, THERE IS NOT A LIVE SHELL IN THE CHAMBER AND THE 'SAFETY' IS IN THE ON SAFE POSITION.
After ensuring that the firearm is completely unloaded, open the breech or action and look through the barrel to be sure it is clear of obstructions. If an obstruction is seen, no matter how small it may be, clean the bore with a cleaning rod and patch as described [in your firearm's owner's manual]
10. BE ALERT TO THE SIGNS OF AMMUNITION MALFUNCTION. IF YOU DETECT AN OFF SOUND OR LIGHT RECOIL WHEN A SHELL IS FIRED, DO NOT LOAD ANOTHER SHELL INTO THE CHAMBER.
If your firearm fails to fire, keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction for a minimum of 30 seconds. Rotate the ejection area of the firearm away from you, carefully open the action and remove the shell from the chamber. If the primer is indented, the defective shell should be disposed of in a way that cannot cause harm. If the primer is not indented, your firearm should be examined by a qualified gunsmith and the cause of the malfunction corrected before further use. Glance down the barrel to make sure that no obstructions remain in the barrel. Completely clear the barrel before loading and firing again. Failure to follow these instructions can cause extensive damage to your firearm and possible serious injury to yourself and others.
11. NEVER INSERT A CARTRIDGE OF THE INCORRECT CALIBER OR GAUGE INTO ANY FIREARM.
The caliber or gauge of your firearm is marked on the barrel. Store all catridges of different calibers or gauges in completely separate and well-marked containers. Best app for mac cleaning. Never store cartridges of mixed calibers or gauges in a common container or in your pockets. See your firearm's owner's manual] for more information on the correct ammunition for your firearm.
12. EXAMINE EVERY CARTRIDGE YOU PUT IN YOUR FIREARM.
We assume no responsibility for the use of unsafe or improper firearm and ammunition combinations or damage or injury caused by damaged ammunition. It is your responsibility to read and heed all warnings in this owner's manual and on ammunition boxes. See [your firearm's owner's manual] for more information on the correct ammunition for your firearm.
13. USE ONLY SAAMI APPROVED AMMUNITION.
The barrel and action of this firearm have been made with safety margins over the pressures established by the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers' Institute (SAAMI) for Service Cartridges. However, we assume no responsibility for incidents which occur through the use of cartridges of nonstandard dimension or those developing pressures in excess of SAAMI established standards.
14. DISCHARGING FIREARMS IN POORLY VENTILATED AREAS, CLEANING FIREARMS OR HANDLING AMMUNITION MAY RESULT IN EXPOSURE TO LEAD AND OTHER SUBSTANCES KNOWN TO CAUSE BIRTH DEFECTS, REPRODUCTIVE HARM AND OTHER SERIOUS PHYSICAL INJURY. HAVE ADEQUATE VENTILATION AT ALL TIMES. WASH HANDS THOROUGHLY AFTER EXPOSURE.
15. DO NOT SNAP THE FIRING PIN ON AN EMPTY CHAMBER; THE CHAMBER MAY NOT BE EMPTY!
Treat every firearm with the respect due a loaded firearm, even though you are certain the firearm is unloaded.

The Pump Action
By Chuck HawksThe pump action has long been a peculiarly North American tradition. To the best of my knowledge, there has never been much interest in the type in Europe, Australia, or Asia. I find this hard to understand, as the pump is the fastest and easiest to operate of all manual actions. Neither hand need change its grip on the rifle to operate the slide handle of a pump action.
Colt built the Lightning pump action rifle, starting in 1884, to compete with the lever action Winchesters of the time. As I write these words, only Remington among themajor U.S. arms companies builds a pump action centerfire rifle, although Browning and Savage have also offered modern pump action rifles in recent times. And several manufacturers offer pump action .22 rimfire rifles. Both the Remington and Browning centerfire designsincorporate double action bars and a front locking, rotating bolt. Both are mechanically and visually very similar to theirrespective firms autoloading rifles (see 'The Autoloading Action'). Thedifference is basically that the shooter's arm provides the energy to cycle the action of the pumpversion, instead of expanding gas as in the autoloader.
The pump is a very natural type of action. As the rifle recoils, the shooter's weak hand strokes the rifle's forearmback, which extracts and ejects the fired brass; as the rifle comes back toward alignment with thetarget, the hand slides the forearm forward, chambering a new round and closing the bolt. Apump can be cycled almost as fast as an autoloader (even faster in some cases). Certainly, a pumpaction is no more sensitive to the build up of fouling in its mechanism than an autoloader, although is seems to be just as succeptable to freezing in very cold weather. Both types should be kept reasonably clean for reliable function. It is a shame that the pumpgun is not more popular. In North American sales, pump rifles trail the other actions.
Browning's modern pump action rifle was called the BPR. Like theautoloading BAR, its forearm fit flush to the receiver. In fact, it was a dead ringer for the popularBAR, except that its receiver was made from an aerospace aluminum alloy (like the BLR). There was a long action model chambered forthe .270 Win, 7mm Rem. Mag., .30-06 Spfd., and .300 Win. Mag. There was also a short actionmodel, chambered for the .243 Win. and the .308 Win.
Magazine capacity was 4 rounds for allstandard calibers, 3 for magnum calibers. The magazine was attached to the swing open floorplate,detachable if desired, as in the BAR and BLR. Iron sights were standard on all models. Averageweight in the standard calibers was 7 pounds 3 ounces, and overall length was 43 inches. The twopiece stock was made from select walnut, with plenty of cut checkering and a beautiful gloss finish. In allcalibers the barrel was fully free floating, with no forearm contact, to enhance accuracy. As usual with Browning rifles, the overall quality of fit andfinish was superior. In .300 Mag. the BPR may still be one of the best rifles around for hunting large or dangerous North American game, providing speed nearly equivalent to a BAR, coupled with a manually operatedaction that many hunters trust more than an autoloader.
Another modern American pump gun, manufactured from 1970 until 1981, was the Savage Model 170. This was a more economical and less sophisticated rifle than the Browning and Remington pumps. The Model 170's streamlined receiver and the shape of its forearm reminded me of a small gauge pump action shotgun. It featured a blued carbon steel barrel and receiver and an un-checkered walnut stock. It used a tubular magazine under its 22' barrel, again much like a modern pump shotgun. Calibers were .30-30 Win. and .35 Rem. There was also a carbine version with an 18.5' barrel (Model 170C) in .30-30 only.
The Remington 7600 is directly descended from the long-running Model 760, and is very similarto the company's companion 7400 autoloader. Many of the internal parts are interchangeable. The 7600's forearm does not extend all the way back to the receiver like the 7400's does, so it iseasier to distinguish between the two than with the Browning pair. The 7600 is chambered in 5calibers: .243 Win., .270 Win., .280 Rem., .308 Win., and .30-06 Spfd. I wish it were also offered in .358 Win. The 7600 has an all steelreceiver, complete with Remington's fine-line engraving. It uses the same detachable boxmagazine as the 7400. Magazine capacity is 4 rounds in all calibers. The barrel is fully freefloating. Standard7600's come with two piece checkered walnut stocks and forearms; the buttstock has a MonteCarlo comb, which helps to align the eye with a scope. All models come standard with ironsights. The .30-06 caliber is available in a carbine model with an 18.5 inch barrel. There is also a7600 Synthetic model, with a black fiberglass reinforced plastic stock, and dull finish metal work. The metal parts of the standard model are polished and attractively blued, and the wood has anice satin finish.
From the descriptions above, it should be clear that both the BPR and 7600 are attractive, highquality rifles. Some years ago it was generally felt that, for whatever reason, Remington's 740autoloader was generally a little more accurate than their 760 pump. Evidently free floating the barrel of the 7600 has helped the pump's accuracy, and now it is regarded by Remington as equal to the 7400 autoloader in the accuracy department. And, ofcourse, the pump action is also ambidextrous.
