MASSACHUSETTS:“WARNING FROM THE MASSACHUSETTS ATTORNEY GENERAL: This handgun

is not equipped with a device that ully blocks use by unauthorized users.More than 200,000 rearms like this one are stolen rom their owners

every year in the United States. In addition, there are more than a thousand

suicides each year by younger children and teenagers who get access to

rearms. Hundreds more die rom accidental discharge. It is likely that many

more children sustain serious wounds, or infict such wounds accidentally

on others. In order to limit the chance o such misuse, it is imperative

2.0 Mechanical Characteristics and WeaponTheory

2.1 Weapon Description

2.1.1. IntroductionYou are now the owner o one o the world’s inest and most superbly

produced irearms. The SIG SAUER 1911 Series semiautomatic pistol

has been crated to meet the stringent requirements o the military, law

enorcement and sportsmen. Used with the proper ammunition and given

1.1 Protect Your Eyes and Ears

Always wear saety glasses that meet the requirements o American

National Standards Institute (ANSI) Z87.1 and ear plugs or “earmu” type

protectors whenever you are shooting. Always make certain that persons

close to you are similarly protected. Unprotected eyes may be injured by

powder, gas, carbon residue, lubricant, metallic particles, or similar debris

that may emanate occasionally rom any rearm in normal use. Without ear

protection, repeated exposure to shooting noise may lead to cumulative,

permanent hearing loss.

2.5 Disconnector

The disconnector is a passive saety which locks and unlocks automatically

while the slide moves. The disconnector releases the sear when slide is

moving and prevents iring beore the slide is in battery.

2.6 Firing Pin Saety

The iring pin saety is a passive saety which keeps the iring pin in

its position until the trigger is pulled. This eectively blocks iring pin

movement and prevents unintended discharge in the event o a drop.

when it counts™

3.0 Ammunition

1. Use only high-quality, original, actory-manuactured ammunition. Do not

use cartridges that are dirty, wet, corroded, bent, or damaged. Do not oil

cartridges. Do not spray aerosol-type lubricants, preservatives, or cleaners

directly onto cartridges or where excess spray may fow into contact

with cartridges. Lubricant or other oreign matter on cartridges can cause

potentially dangerous ammunition malunctions. Only use ammunition

o the caliber or which your rearm is chambered. The proper caliber is

permanently engraved on your rearm; never attempt to use ammunition o

any other caliber. The Sig Sauer 1911-22 pistol is designed to unction with

22 Long Rife High Velocity ammunition only.

2. The use o reloaded, “remanuactured” hand-loaded, or other non-

standard ammunition voids all warranties. Reloading is a science and

improperly loaded ammunition can be extremely dangerous. Severe damageto the rearm and serious injury to the shooter or to others may result.

Always use ammunition that complies with the industry perormance

standards established by the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manuacturers’

Institute, Inc. (SAAMI) o the United States or ammunition manuactured to

military specications.

WARNING – AMMUNITION (CARTRIDGE)NOTICE

SIG SAUER SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE

OR INJURY WHATSOEVER OCCURRING IN CONNECTION WITH, OR AS A

RESULT OF, THE USE IN ANY SIG SAUER FIREARM OF FAULTY, NON-

STANDARD, “REMANUFACTURED” HAND-LOADED (RELOADED) AMMUNITION,

OR CARTRIDGES OTHER THAN THOSE FOR WHICH THE FIREARM WAS

ORIGINALLY CHAMBERED.

3. Firearms may be severely damaged and serious injury to the shooter or

to others may result rom any condition causing excessive pressure inside

the chamber or barrel during ring. Excessive pressure can be caused by

obstructions in the barrel, propellant powder overloads, the use o incorrect

cartridges, or deectively assembled cartridges. In addition, the use o a

dirty, corroded, or damaged cartridge can lead to a burst cartridge case and

consequent damage to the rearm and personal injury rom the sudden

escape o high-pressure propellant gas within the rearm’s mechanism.

4. Immediately stop shooting and check the barrel or a possible obstruction

whenever:

• You have diculty in, or eel unusual resistance in, chambering a cartridge

• A cartridge misres (does not go o)

• The mechanism ails to extract a red cartridge case

• Unburned grains o propellant powder are discovered spilled in the

mechanism• A shot sounds weak or abnormal. In such cases it is possible that a bullet

is lodged partway down the barrel. Firing a subsequent bullet into the

obstructed barrel can wreck the rearm and cause serious injury to the

shooter or to bystanders

5. Bullets can become lodged in the barrel:

• I the cartridge has been improperly loaded without propellant powder,

or i the powder ails to ignite (ignition o the cartridge primer alone will

push the bullet out o the cartridge case, but usually does not generate

sucient energy to expel the bullet completely rom the barrel).

• I the bullet is not properly seated in the cartridge case. When such a

cartridge is extracted rom the chamber without being red, the bullet

may be let behind in the bore at the point where the rifing begins.

Subsequent chambering o another cartridge may push the rst bullet

urther into the bore.

when it counts™

6. I there is any reason to suspect that a bullet is obstructing the barrel,

immediately unload the rearm and look through the bore. It is not sucient

to merely look in the chamber. A bullet may be lodged some distance down

the barrel where it cannot easily be seen.

 

WARNING – LODGED BULLET

IF A BULLET IS IN THE BORE, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SHOOT IT OUT BY USING

ANOTHER CARTRIDGE OR BY BLOWING IT OUT WITH A BLANK OR ONE

FROM WHICH THE BULLET HAS BEEN REMOVED. SUCH TECHNIQUES CAN

GENERATE EXCESSIVE PRESSURE, DAMAGE THE FIREARM, AND CAUSE

SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.

I the bullet can be removed with a cleaning rod, clean any unburned

powder grains rom the bore, chamber, and mechanism beore resumingshooting. I the bullet cannot be dislodged by tapping it with a cleaning rod,

send the rearm to SIG SAUER.

7. Dirt, corrosion, or other oreign matter on a cartridge can impede

complete chambering and may cause the cartridge case to burst upon ring.

The same is true o cartridges that are damaged or deormed.

8. Do not oil cartridges, and be sure to wipe the chamber clean o any

oil or preservative beore commencing to shoot. Oil intereres with the

riction between cartridge case and chamber wall that is necessary or sae

unctioning, and subjects the rearm to stress similar to that imposed by

excessive pressure.

9. Use lubricants sparingly on the moving parts o your rearm. Avoid

excessive spraying o any aerosol gun care product, especially where it may

get on ammunition. All lubricants and aerosol spray lubricants, in particular,

can penetrate cartridge primers and cause misres. Some highly penetrative

lubricants can also migrate inside cartridge cases and cause deterioration

o the propellant powder; on ring, the powder may not ignite. I only the

primer ignites, there is danger that the bullet may become lodged in the

barrel.
