General Advice on the use of W A LTHE R Small-Bore Rifles:

1. Sights

Before commencing to shoot, ensure

that the screws holding the front and

rear sight are tightened up.

-The prism diopter is adjustable for

50, 100, and 150 m. Setting the rear

sight for these distances is effected

by means of the elevation screw.

The scale markings must in each

instance coincide with the Zero mark

(see arrow).

Windage correction: -If shots group

to right, turn knob =R to the left

(anti-clockwise); if shots go to the

left, turn knob =L clockwise (as

shown by arrows on knob).

Elevation correction: -If shots go

low, turn knob =Tto the left; if shots

group high, turn knob =H to the

right.

3 clicks result in an alteration of the

mean centre of the group by one

ring on the target.

JII. 11. Removal of the knurled locking

ring, which is also made evailable in

2. Sling Attachment

;."JII. 16. When inserting the sling holder into the

groove of the sling rail, see to it that the clamp-

ing lever stands sideways. Move the sling

holder to the required position.

JII.17. To fix the holder, push the lever upwards

5(see illustration). When altering the position of

JII. 17 JII. 18

the holder, reverse the order of manipulation.

A sling holder with handstop is available for

Mod. KKM II and for the match rifle Mod. KKM

Match (see JII. 18).

3. WALTHER Rifle Sling

JII. 19. Push sling end (a) through

loop (b), then apply sling swivel and

by the shooter. When applying the

sling to the left upper arm (left-hand-

ed shooters, to the right upper arm),

push loop (b) back until the sling fits

the arm firmly. Finally, push fixing

hook (d) through both parts of the

sling and insert locking pin in the

holes in the hook.

JII. 20. Attach the sling swivel to the

sling holder. The rifle may now be

brought up to the shooting position.

The sling, owing to its rigid method

of fixing, cannot change its firm

position. ill. 20

4. Match Triggers

JII. 21. Match trigger. The trigger is adjustable

lengthwise and can be made to slope outwards

to either the left or the right.

Screw 1 for adjustment of trigger pull and let-

left). Screw 2 for adjustment of trigger slack

(to shorten, turn right; to lengthen turn left).

JII. 22

JII. 22. Match trigger with set-trigger. To use

the device, push trigger 1 forward until it is

engaged (in direction of arrow). The rear trig-

ger now has a very light and instantaneous let-

off.

apply safety at once and open the breech

carefully!

This is not a combination trigger!

JII. 34. Turn the safety lever fully

over to the left (in the direction of

the arrow).

JII. 35. Withdraw the bolt-end with

JII. 40. Insert the striker in the bolt

and push until the point of the striker

appears in the hole in the bolt face

(see arrow).

Ensure that the spring pin in the bolt

end (b) does not drop out and goes

astray. ill. 40 14

JII. 41. Put the bolt handle on the

bolt. Make sure that the spring pin

(a) is seated correctly in the notch

(b) in the bolt handle unit at the

lug (c).

The part concerned is shown enlarg-

ed in the right-hand corner, to

explain the exact positioning.

JII. 42. Bolt, complete with bolt

handle, as well as bolt-end with

safety lever, seen from above. When

replacing the bolt-end, make sure

that the wider lug on the latter is

seated correctly in the wider recess

in the bolt, as shown by arrow.

JII. 43. As shown in the illustration,

push the bolt handle forward, fit the

bolt-end firmly to the bolt as describ-

ed before, then turn fully over to the

right together with lhe bolt.

JII. 44. Hold the bolt firmly with the

left hand and turn the bolt handle to

the right with the right hand. The

bolt may now be put back into the

action body. When doing so, press

the bolt lock on the action body

downward.

9. Care of the rifle

After shooting, clean the bore of the

barrel thoroughly and wipe with a

patch saturated with non-resinous

and acid-free oil.

JII. 45. Place "the fingertip over the

muzzle so as to prevent the tip of

the cleaning rod (jag) from coming

out of the muzzle. Do not push the

jag with the patch right out of the

muzzle and then try to withdraw the

rod by force.

Lubricate the bolt lightly and leave

a thin coat of oil on all metal parts

when the rifle is not in use. Wipe

the bore with a dry patch before use.

It is recommended to remove the

lead deposit from the chamber with

a brass wire brush (NOT WITH A

STEEL. WIRE BRUSH) after firing

about 1 000 shots. The brush must

penetrate the barrel to a depth of

not more than 60-80 mm. Oil the

bore again

afterwards.
