INSTALLATION
Use the actual weapon for correct installation

  1. Install long or short crossbar in rectengular cavity in bottom of gun lock.

  2. Install gun lock on the weapon.

  3. Assemble "L" bracket together with butt plate or with Muzzle Plug/Cup.

  4. Position weapon - together with the gun lock - at your desired location and find suitable locations for mounting screws.

  5. Hold weapon-gunlock in place and have another person position L bracket-Butt Plate or L bracket-muzzle plug/cup assembly at the butt stock or muzzle of the weapon. Move complete assembly around to find the best position for both gun lock and "L" bracket assembly.

  6. First mark and drill mounting holes for the gun lock and use included sheet metal screws or carriage bolts to loosely mount the gun lock-crossbar assembly to the surface. Do not fully tighten screws yet.

  7. Install weapon in gun lock and fine tune position of "L" bracket assembly at either end of the weapon. Make sure you leave 1/16" - 1/8" play lenghtwise so weapon will not be too tight in the setup. You do not want to make it hard to remove/replace the gun. It should just slide easily in and out.

  8. Mark and drill mounting holes and install "L" bracket assembly.

  9. Do not tighten screws until you have checked weapon placement and removal several times.

  10. Again: you want the weapon to come out of and go back into the setup light and easy.

  11. See gun lock installation instructions for electrical wiring instructions.
