To load the shotgun, first, insert the shell into the chamber.

Then insert the barrel into the receiver and line up the locking lugs on the barrel with those on the receiver.

Push down on the barrel until it locks into place. The hammer should now be in the cocked position.

Pull back on the operating handle and release it, which will cock the hammer and chamber a round.

Be sure to keep your finger off the trigger while loading the gun.

Once the gun is loaded, you can put the safety on if you wish.

To do so, push the safety lever forward until it clicks into the “on” position.

The gun is now ready to fire.

To load a Remington 12 gauge shotgun, you will first need to open the breech of the gun. This can be done by pushing down on the lever located at the back of the gun. You will then need to insert the shells into the breach, making sure that each shell is facing in the correct direction. Once all of the shells have been inserted, you can close the breach by pushing up on the lever located at the back of the gun. Finally, you will need to cock back (or “rack”)the gun by pulling back on either of the two triggers located just in front of the grip.

First, make sure the barrel is pointed in a safe direction and that the gun is unloaded. Then, place a shell into the chamber and close the breach. Rotate the barrel so that it’s in line with the target, and pull the trigger to fire. Repeat this process until all shells have been fired.

When loading shells into the magazine tube, be sure to insert them pointed down so that they don’t fall out while firing. Also, make sure there are no obstructions in the barrel before firing. For best results, use high-quality ammunition manufactured by a reputable company.

A 12 gauge shotgun can be loaded one of two ways: with a round shell that is either inserted into the chamber or loaded into the magazine tube.

To load a round shell into the chamber, hold the shotgun so that the barrel is pointed down and push the round shell into the chamber. Then release your grip on the round shell and let it fall into place.

To load a round shell into the magazine tube, hold the shotgun so that the barrel is pointed down and insert the round shell into the magazine tube. Then release your grip on the round shell and let it fall into place. To chamber, a round from withint the magazine tube, pull back on thte pump handle and then release it. The round will be chambered and ready to fire.

The first step is to insert a shell into the chamber. To do this, hold the shotgun with one hand and use your thumb to press down on the shell stop while simultaneously pushing shells forward into the magazine with your other hand. You should hear a click when each shell is properly seated in the magazine.

Once you have loaded all of the shells into the magazine, you need to cock the gun. To do this, simply pull back on the charging handle and release it. This will load a shell into the chamber and prepare the shotgun for firing.

To load the shotgun, first, insert a shell into the chamber–this is located at the top of the barrel. Then, use your fingers to press down on the rounds in the magazine until they slide into the chamber. Repeat this process until all rounds are loaded into the magazine.

Now, hold the gun barrel down with your left hand and use your right hand to cock the hammer back. Be very careful not to touch or bump the trigger while doing this. Finally, slide the barrel forward until it locks into place.
