Make sure all surfaces are clean if an unusual resistance is felt. If it still resists closing, fully disassemble and perform a thorough cleaning, then reassemble.

Right-handed shooters tip to the right and left-handed shooters tip to the left. BE CAREFUL: EMPTY HULLS WILL EJECT OUT OF THE CHAMBERS RAPIDLY AND DIRECTLY IN LINE WITH THE CHAMBERS. IF YOU FAIL TO TIP THE CHAMBERS AWAY FROM YOUR FACE AND BODY THEY MAY STRIKE YOU IN THE FACE OR BODY CAUSING INJURY. Whenever possible, pick up all of your empties after they are ejected so as to not to cause litter. [. . . ] This avoids possible delays in obtaining service.
