BEFORE DOING ANY CALIBER CHANGES, ENSURE YOUR FIREARM IS FULLY UNLOADED AND SAFE! WE RECOMMEND KEEPING ALL LIVE AMMUNTION SEPARATE FROM YOUR RAVEN WHILE MAKING CHANGES.
TIP: ONCE A CALIBER CHANGE HAS BEEN COMPLETED, WE RECOMMEND YOU LOAD AND CYCLE (5) "DUMMY" AMMUNITION THROUGH THE RIFLETO CONFIRM THE CALIBER CHANGE HAS BEEN DONE SUCCESSFULLY. ALWAYS DO A FUNCTION TEST OF LOADING, UNLOADING, AND PLACING THE FIREARM ON SAFE WITH "DUMMY" AMMUNTION BEFORE DOING ANY LIVE FIRE.
TAKE DOWN PINS WILL BE REFERRED TO AS TDP.
UPPER RECEIVER AND LOWER RECEIVER WILL BE REFFERED TO AS UPPER AND LOWER.
!! IF TDP DOES NOT EASILY REMOVE OR INSTALL, DO NOT FORCE IT! INSPECT FOR DIRT AND DEBRIS WHICH COULD BE HOLDING IT IN. GIVE IT A QUICK CLEAN AND THE PINS SHOULD FREELY REMOVE OR INSTALL. WE RECOMMEND EACH TIME YOU REMOVE THE TDP'S THAT YOU GIVE THEM A QUICK WIPE DOWN TO ENSURE THEY ARE CLEAN BEFORE REINSTALLING.
TO REMOVE THE FIRING BOLT:
1) REMOVE REAR TDP AND PIVOT UPPER ON THE FRONT TDP.
2) UNTHREAD SIDE CHARGING HANDLE IF INSTALLED AND REMOVE BOLT.
REMOVAL COMPLETE!
