GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The Browning T-Bolt rifle is a rimfire rifle that utilizes a straight-pull
bolt. It is capable of firing a single cartridge fed from a detachable
rotary box magazine each time the bolt is cycled and the trigger is
pulled. The bolt is cycled by simply pulling straight rearward and then
pushing fully forward. The rifle is then ready to fire the next cartridge
with a pull of the trigger. When cycling the bolt, it should be operated
smoothly but positively through both the opening and closing
movements to ensure proper ejection and feeding. This sequence
of operation may be followed until both the magazine and chamber
are empty.
NOMENCLATURE
In conventional firearm terminology the position and movement of
firearm parts are described as they occur with the firearm horizontal
and in the normal firing position: i.e., the muzzle is forward or in
front; the buttstock is rearward or to the rear; the trigger is downward
or underneath; the sights are upward or on top. For general parts
nomenclature, refer to Figure 1.
SERIAL NUMBER
The serial number of your T-Bolt rifle is found on the right side of the
receiver, forward of the ejection port. Record this number at the front
of this owner’s manual for future reference.
