WARNING!!!! PLEASE READ!!!
General Safety Rules
- Always treat every firearm as if it's loaded. ⚠️ Never assume a firearm is unloaded. Check the chamber and magazine well visually and physically every time you handle it.
- Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target. Your trigger finger should rest straight along the side of the receiver, outside the trigger guard.
- Be sure of your target and what's beyond it. Know where your projectile will end up if you miss the target or if it passes through it.
- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE). This includes eye protection and hearing protection at all times when firing or handling firearms with live ammunition.
Pre-Test Safety Check
Before you begin the function test, perform a thorough safety check of the Firearm and your environment.
- Clear the firearm if applicable: Ensure the firearm is unloaded and clear of all ammunition. Visually and physically inspect the chamber and magazine well. Check your firing pin to make sure it is not stuck protruding.
- Inspect the Components: Check all parts for damage, defects, or loose fittings. This includes the barrel, bolt carrier group (BCG), trigger, and the upper and lower receivers.
Live Fire Function Test (Range Only)
This test is performed at a shooting range and requires live ammunition.
- Load a Single Round: Insert a single live round into an empty magazine. This is a common practice to mitigate the risk of a full-magazine malfunction during the initial test.
- Fire the Round: Chamber the round and fire it at a safe backstop.
- Check for Ejection: After firing, the spent casing should eject.
- Repeat with More Rounds: If the Firearm functions correctly with one round, load a few more and repeat the process. Check for proper feeding, firing, and ejection.
- IF THE FIREARM DOES NOT FUNCTION AND CYCLE PROPERLY DO NOT CONTINUE, REACH OUT TO FREE STATE GUN COMPANY FOR FURTHER INSTRUCTION.
Post-Test Procedures
- Unload and clear the firearm: Once the test is complete, unload and clear the firearm immediately. Double-check that the chamber and magazine well are empty.
- Field Strip and Inspect: Disassemble the firearm and inspect all components for any signs of excessive wear or damage. Pay close attention to the bolt carrier group, barrel, and buffer system.
- Clean and Lubricate: Properly clean and lubricate the firearm before storing it.
If you have any questions or concerns during assembly, safety, function and live fire checks do not hesitate to contact Free State Gun company.
Due to the wide variety of manufacturers of upper receivers and tolerance stacking, minor fitment may be required. We are happy to assist as we can.
