MANUAL BEFORE USING THIS RIFLE

Safety is Critical to Performance.

Asuperbly crafted gun is only as good as the hands that hold it. You can never be too careful. Shooting

accidents are often caused by careless oversights such as failing to control the direction of the muzzle, failing to

fully engage the safety, leaving ammunition in the chamber or using improper loads. These oversights can result

in the destruction of life, limb or property. There’s no calling back a bullet once it’s been fired, so it’s

critical that you know the principles of safe gun handling and storage before you ever take your new Remington

firearm out of the box.

The proper use and performance of your firearm depends on correct assembly and maintenance, so it’s critical

that you familiarize yourself with the information in this instruction book. Even if you’re a veteran shooter with a

collection of Remington firearms, take the time to read this literature. Not all firearms are the same. That means

the first step in safe handling is to learn the features and requirements of your new Remington.

With the privilege of owning a firearm comes the responsibility to use it safely. You must understand and follow

the Ten Commandments of Firearms Safety at all times. These time-honored safety rules apply to your ownership

and handling of any firearm. They must govern your actions whenever and wherever you are involved with

firearms . . . in the field, on the range, or in your home. Commit these Ten Commandments to your memory.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF FIREARM SAFETY

1st COMMANDMENT

Always Keep the Muzzle Pointed in a Safe Direction.

This is the most important gun safety rule.Asafe direction is one in which an accidental discharge will not cause

injury to yourself or others. Never allow your gun to point at anything you don’t intend to shoot. Be especially

careful when you’reloading or unloading. Treat every gun as if it were loaded. And make it a habit to know where

the muzzle is pointed at all times, even when your firearm is unloaded. No one will be injured by an

accidental discharge if you keep your firearm pointed in a safe direction. It’s as simple as that.

2nd COMMANDMENT

Firearms Should be Unloaded When Not in Use and Secured from

Unauthorized Use.

Load your firearm only when you are in the field or on the range and ready to shoot. Unload your firearm as

soon as you arefinished shooting. Never bring a loaded firearm into your camp, home or vehicle. Unloading

means unloading both the chamber and the magazine. Beforehandling a firearm or passing it on to someone

else, visually check the chamber, receiver, and magazine to make sure there is no ammunition anywhere in the

firearm. Never assume a firearm is unloaded, and never take someone’s word for it - look for yourself. When

you arefinished shooting and have completely unloaded the firearm, leave its action open.

Whenever you arecarrying a loaded firearm in the field,you must unload it beforecrossing a fence, climbing

into a tree stand or blind or in any other situation where you may not be able to fully control the firearm. Never

pull or push a loaded firearm toward yourself or another person.

Store your firearms unloaded in a secure place where unauthorized persons cannot gain access to them. Store

firearms and ammunition separately. If you use an external security device such as a cable lock or trigger lock,

you must still keep the firearm unloaded when locked. Whether you utilize a locked gun safe or external lock-

ing device, it is your responsibility to make sure that children and other unauthorized persons cannot gain access

to your firearmand ammunition.

3rd COMMANDMENT

Never Rely on Your Firearm’s Safety Mechanism to Justify Careless Handling.

If your firearm is equipped with a manual safety mechanism,do not rely on the safety as an excuse for improp-

er or careless handling of the firearm. The safety mechanism is merely a supplement to your proper handling of

the firearm. The safety mechanism may be broken or altered. Even if you think you have previously engaged

the safety in the “safe” position, it may have been inadvertently disengaged without your knowledge while being

carried. Never assume that the safety mechanism is engaged in the “safe” position. Your assumption may be

wrong or mistaken. Treat your firearms safety mechanism like you would treat any other mechanical device - as

something that could break or fail.

Not all safety mechanisms operate in the same manner.Before using any firearm, know and understand pre-

cisely how the safety mechanism on that particular firearm operates. Never pull the trigger when the safety

mechanism is in the “safe” position, and keep your fingers away from the trigger while loading, unloading, and

engaging or disengaging the safety mechanism.

4th COMMANDMENT

Know Your Target and What’s Beyond It.

Never fire a shot unless you know exactly where the shot is going and what it will strike. Bullets and shot can

travel great distances with deadly velocity. When hunting game, never fire at a sound, a movement or a patch of

color - an impulsive shot can have tragic consequences. A fellow hunter in camouflage may be mistaken for

game by an impulsive shooter.

In addition to being sure of your target,you must know what lies beyond the target. In other words, make sure

of your backstop. Also, beware of ricochets - never shoot at water or a hard surface.

5th COMMANDMENT

Use Proper Ammunition.

Everyfirearmis designed to use only a specified caliber,gauge or length of ammunition. Use of the wrong

ammunition can cause serious personal injury or death. It is your responsibility to make sure the ammunition

exactly matches the specifications for your firearm.

Use of improperly reloaded ammunition can also be dangerous. Firearms aredesigned, manufactured, and

proof-tested to specified industry standards. Hand-loaded or reloaded ammunition that deviates, either inten-

tionally or accidentally,from specified loadings can be extremely hazardous. It is strongly recommended, there-

fore, that you use only factoryammunition from a reputable ammunition manufacturer.If you do reload, you

have assumed the risks and responsibilities of an ammunition manufacturer.

6th COMMANDMENT

If Your Firearm Fails to Fire When You Pull the Trigger, Handle With Care.

If a chambered round of ammunition does not fire when you pull the trigger,stop and keep the muzzle pointed

in a safe direction. Treat your firearm as if it could still discharge. Keep your face away from the breech. Slowly

and carefully open the action, return the safety mechanism to the “safe” position, and unload the cartridge from

the chamber. Dispose of the cartridge safely. If your firearm repeatedly fails to fire when you pull the trigger, take

your firearm and ammunition to a competent gunsmith or return the firearm to the manufacturer for inspection.

4

7th COMMANDMENT

Always Wear Eye and Ear Protection.

Wear protective shooting glasses and hearing protection when shooting. Be sure to wear eye protection when

disassembling or cleaning a firearm to protect your eyes from springs and other tensioned parts. Continued

exposure to shooting noise can permanently damage your hearing.

8th COMMANDMENT

Be Sure the Barrel is Clear of Obstructions Before Shooting.

With your firearm completely unloaded, open the action and make sure there are no obstructions or debris in the

barrel. Even a small obstruction such as snow or mud in the barrel can cause the barrel or receiver to burst when

the next round is fired. Use a cleaning rod to remove obstructions and residues from the barrel. If the firing

noise or recoil seems weak, stop and completely unload your firearm to check for obstructions before firing

another shot. NEVER try to shoot out an obstruction by loading and firing another round of ammunition.

9th COMMANDMENT

Never Alter or Modify Your Firearm and Have it Cleaned and Serviced Regularly.

Your firearm has been carefully designed and manufactured tooperate according to certain factory specifications.

NEVER alter or modify your firearm, especially its trigger or safety mechanism, in any way. Such alterations or

modifications can adversely affect the safe operation of your firearm, endangering you and those around you.

As with any mechanical device, the parts of a firearm are subject to wear or breakage. To assure optimum safe-

ty and performance, your firearm must be maintained and serviced on a regular basis. Only a competent gun-

smith or a Remington Authorized Service Center should service or repair your firearm.

Proper cleaning and lubrication are also important to maintain the safe and proper functioning of your firearm.

Follow the cleaning and lubrication instructions set forth in the owner’s manual for your firearm. NEVER attempt

to clean or lubricate a loaded firearm.

10th COMMANDMENT

Learn How Your Firearm Operates.

Not all firearms are alike. Before you use any firearm for the first time, you must become totally familiar with

how that firearm operates. When you receive a new firearm, read and understand the owner’s manual before

assembling the firearm for the first time. If you acquire a used firearm, request an owner’s manual and have the

rifle inspected by a competent gunsmith to determine whether it is in good working order. If you do not have an

owner’s manual, contact the manufacturer to obtain one. If you are selling or trading your firearm to someone

else, be sure to transfer the owner’s manual to the new owner.

LEAD EXPOSURE WARNING

Discharging firearms in poorly ventilated areas, cleaning firearms or handling ammunition may result in expo-

sure to lead, a substance known to cause birth defects, reproductive harm, cancer and other serious physical

injury. Have adequate ventilation at all times. Wash hands thoroughly after exposure.

SHOOT SOBER!

Guns and alcohol or drugs don’t mix. Never consume anything that would even mildly impair your judgement or

physical coordination while handling a firearm.

WARNING

Failuretofollow any of these safety rules may cause personal injuryor death to the shooter or bystander and

damage to property. Do not use a firearm until you fully understand and practice the Ten Commandments of

Firearm Safety. If you have any questions about the safe use of a Remington firearm, write to us at Remington

Arms Company,Inc., Consumer Service, P.O. Box 700, Madison, NC 27025-0700, or call us at 1-800-243-9700.

Use the Security Lock Provided with your Rifle

This rifle comes with a security lock to assist in protecting against unauthorized use. (See Picture 1).

The rifle must be unloaded when the security lock is in place on the rifle. WARNING:Using the

security lock cannot substitute for securing your firearm and ammunition in separate, locked locations.

The security lock operates as follows:

1. To open the Trigger Lock put the Key into the notches of the Trigger Lock Nut and un-screw it

counter-clockwise (See Pictures 2, 3). Remove the Trigger Lock Screw.

2. To install the Trigger Lock on a single shot rifle put the Trigger Lock over the trigger guard with the larg-

er end of the Trigger Lock shroud pointing toward the muzzle. Then place the Trigger Lock Screw through

SAFETY MECHANISM

External Control Parts

Trigger Block Safety: The trigger block safety of the Model SPR 18 rifle provides protection against

accidental or unintentional discharge under normal usage when properly engaged and in good working order.

WARNING: Make sure you understand how the safety works before you load or use the rifle. The safety

mechanism is not a substitute for following the rules of safe gun handling.

The safety mechanism is a cross-bolt style safety button located behind the trigger. To place the safety in the “on”

or “safe” position, push the button all the way to the right. When in the “on” or “safe” position, the safety blocks the

rearward motion of the trigger (See Picture 7). To place the safety in the “off” or “fire” position, push the

button all the way to the left. When in the “off” or “fire” position, a red ring is exposed on the left side of the safety

button. You have now disengaged the safety and the rifle is in the ready-to-fire position (See Picture 8).

WARNING

Do not touch the trigger while moving the safety button. When operating the safety button, make sure you push it to the full extent of its travel in

the desired direction, either fully “on” or fully “off.” Half-safe or partially safe is UNSAFE.

When the Red Ring is showing the rifle will fire when the trigger is pulled!! Do not disengage safety unless you are ready to fire the rifle.

MAKE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND HOW THE SAFETY WORKS BEFORE YOU LOAD OR USE THE RIFLE.

External Control Parts (cont’d)

Locking Lever: The locking lever is a lever-like protrusion extending from the rear of the trigger guard.

(See Picture 9.) The locking lever is used to break open the action to load and/or unload the rifle. To break open

the action, fully depress or squeeze the locking level toward the stock. (See Picture 10).

WARNING

When operating the locking lever, you must: (1) make sure the safety mechanism is in the “on” or “safe” position; (2) keep your fingers away from

the trigger and outside of the trigger guard; and (3) control the direction of the muzzle of the rifle.

Cocking Indicator: The cocking indicator is a protrusion from the top back of the receiver. If the internal firing

mechanism is cocked, the cocking indicator protrudes from the receiver. (See Picture 11). If the firing mechanism

is not cocked, the cocking indicator retracts and does not protrude from the receiver. (See Picture 12).

WARNING

The cocking indicator is merely an aid to help you confirm when hunting or shooting that your rifle is cocked and ready-to-fire. NEVER rely on

the status of the cocking indicator to justify careless handling of your rifle. The cocking indicator may be broken or obscured. Always handle your

rifle as if it were loaded, cocked and ready to fire.

External Control Parts (cont’d)

Trigger: The trigger is located inside the trigger guard. (See Picture 13). If you pull the trigger with the safety in

the “off” or “fire” position, the rifle will fire.

WARNING

NEVER pull the trigger until you are actually ready to fire. Keep your fingers off the trigger and outside of the trigger guard until you are ready to

pull the trigger and fire the rifle. When opening and closing the action and when engaging or disengaging the safety mechanism, make sure your

fingers are outside of the trigger guard and away from the trigger.

Fore End: The fore end is the wooden grip piece which attaches to the barrel and locks the barrel to the receiver.

(See Picture 14). The forend has a mechanical latch which is used to lock and unlock the fore end to the barrel.

(See Picture 15). NEVER attempt to fire your rifle without having the fore end locked in its proper position on

the barrel.

Front Sight: Screws up and down for elevation. (See Picture 16).

Rear Sight: Windage adjustable. (See Picture 17).

Instructions For Assembly Of Rifle

WARNING

Before you begin to assemble the rifle, you MUST (1) look down the barrel from the breech end to make sure there is no ammunition in the

chamber or obstruction in the barrel, and (2) make sure the safety is in the “safe” position.

Your rifle was shipped with the barrel assembly (barrel and fore end) detached from the receiver assembly.

To assemble the rifle, follow these instructions:

1. Remove the plastic bags or wrapping covering the parts. Then remove the forend from the barrel by

pulling outward on the mechanical lever in the lower mid-section of the fore end and tipping the fore end

out and away from the barrel while pulling the lever out. Never force the fore end off the barrel.

(See Picture 19, 20).

2. Now fully squeeze/depress the locking lever and hold with one hand. (See Picture 21).

3. Holding the barrel with one hand, engage the lower locking lug located on the lower portion of the barrel

with the receiver. The half round cut out on the lower locking lug fits around the round bar in the forward

lower portion of the slot in the receiver. With the barrel engaged into the receiver, swing the barrel up into

the locked position, release the locking lever, which should move back to the fully locked position.

(See Pictures 22, 23).

Manufacturer’s Warning

This firearm was manufactured to properly perform with the original parts as designed. It is your duty to make

sure any parts you buy are correctly installed and that neither replacements nor originals are altered or changed.

Your rifle has many parts that must relate correctly to other parts for safe and accurate operation. Putting a gun

together wrong or with modified parts can result in a damaged gun, or personal injury or death to you or

others. Always let a qualified gunsmith work on your gun or at least, check any work not performed

by a gunsmith. Firearms safety is your primary concern. THE GUN OWNER MUST ACCEPT FULL

RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE CORRECT REASSEMBLY AND FUNCTIONING OF THE FIREARM AFTER

ANY DISASSEMBLY OR REPLACEMENT OF PARTS.

To Clean and Maintain Your Rifle

A. Follow procedures for unloading rifle as described previously.

B. Follow procedures for disassembly of rifle as described previously.

C. Materials needed to clean this rifle are: a cleaning rod, cotton bore patches, brass bore brush,

powder solvent (such as Remington BriteBore™), a small soft brush and good quality gun oil

(such as Rem®Oil).

WARNING

Lead or lead compounds are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, reproductive toxicity, and other serious physical

injury. Those who clean firearms should take protective measures to avoid contact or exposure to such chemicals.

D. Using the bore brush with powder solvent, scrub the interior of the barrel and chamber to remove any

powder and lead residue in the bore. Always and lastly, swab the interior of the barrel with a cotton patch

with gun oil to coat and protect the bore and chambers from rust and corrosion.

E. Any powder fouling on the firing wall, barrel, etc. can be easily cleaned with a brush and powder solvent.

F. All external surfaces should be wiped down with a light coat of rust preventative. Avoid using too much

oil as powder, dust or other foreign material may get trapped in the oil. This could lead to congealed

deposits which may interfere with the safe and reliable operation of this rifle.

G. USE CAUTION while using solvents in gun bore cleaning. Prolonged or excess contact with

solvents can damage the gun’s bluing and finish. Be sure to wipe away all excess solvent and then

lubricate with oil.

H. A gun should be cleaned after firing. In addition, external parts should be wiped with an oiled cloth

after handling. A light oil is ordinarily all that is necessary in cleaning if the gun has not been fired or fired

very little. If a gun is used frequently, it must be cleaned after each firing and regularly serviced by a

professional gunsmith. If the gun has been stored, remove all excess oil and/or grease before firing.

Always check to be sure that no cleaning patch or other obstruction remains in the bore or chambers

before firing.

DANGER – Ammunition Warning

Firearms may be damaged and serious personal injury or death to the shooter or bystanders may result from any

condition which contributes to the generation of excessive pressure or uncontrolled release of gas within the

firearm. Such adverse conditions can be caused by bore or chamber obstructions, propellant powder overloads or

by defective, incorrect or improperly loaded and assembled cartridge components. Even the strongest firearm can

be blown up as a result of excessive pressure. It is extremely dangerous to use a cartridge whose pressure is

greater than that developed by cartridges loaded to industry standards.

Ammunition (Cartridges) Notice

We specifically disclaim responsibility for any damage, injury or death occurring in connection with or as the

result of the use of the rifle with faulty, non-standard, remanufactured, hand loaded or reloaded ammunition or

with cartridges other than factory cartridges for which the rifle was originally chambered.

Lubrication Warning

Firing a rifle with oil, grease or any other material even partially obstructing the bore may result in damage to the

rifle and personal injury to the shooter and those nearby. Do not spray or apply lubricants directly on ammuni-

tion. If the powder charge of a cartridge is affected by the lubricant, they may not fully ignite yet the energy from

the primer and/or powder may still be sufficient to push the projectile or wad into the bore where it may become

lodged. Firing a subsequent cartridge into the obstructed bore will damage the rifle and may cause personal injury

to the shooter and those nearby. Use lubricants properly. You are responsible for the proper care and mainte-

nance of your firearm and ammunition.
