M.O.A. Maximum owners manual " SEARCH "

I've had a couple and still have one with a few barrels, the ones I have are pretty tight chambers and the 7WSM is a tight neck chamber that you have to turn the necks. The guns shoot great but thee weak link, at least for me, is the extractor system. It's iffy on all the ones I've owned. If the lever doesn't want to come down then recock and snap it again, a lot of times this will allow it to extract. As others have mentioned, don't dry fire it!! It's a neat gun that's accurate and easy to tote but when I carry it hunting I also carry a short cleaning rod in case a empty piece of brass won't extract.
Morning:
Somewhat embarrassing situation but here goes:
I recently bought a MOA Maximum single shot pistol
in .358 Win and I am not at all familiar with this gun.
I have searched a number of sites for an Owners
manual to no avail. So, if a member knows the loading
sequence from start to finish I would appreciate that
information. I have been warned to not dry fire this
pistol so to be SAFE I need the loading sequence
from start to finish.
I appreciate any help given.

Really easy to shoot the MOA

Side view shows firing pin transfer lever.
S safe
F fire
To load it place transfer to “S”
cock hammer back and push trigger guard forward which lowers the breech block.
Close action and push down on firing pin transfer switch. Now you can shoot it.
After shooting it push up on transfer switch up, open action tilt muzzle up and fired case should drop out.
Hope this helps

Slide forearm towards the muzzle
Thank you for your reply.
I have tried after removing the 2 screws moving
or sliding the forearm forward but it does not budge.
i have a concern that I may damage the forearm so
I am not using all the force that I can generate.

You have to slide the forearm forward

Sometimes they can be fairly snug, and that is with a new gun. It might have kind of "glued" itself to the frame after all these years.
IIRC, there is a kind of "S" shaped spring wire held in place on one end, with a screw and the other end fits in a groove on a pin that goes thru the forearm holder into a hole in the barrel to kind of lock the barrel in place. You used to be able to have different barrels fitted to your frame and MOA would sell you a wrench to change barrels. Barrels were s/n to the gun. There was also a scope mount available.

They came a spanner wrench for barrel removal and installation
Thank you for the info and reply.
I have not shot my MOA Maximum yet
I have searched for info and parts and
other than the info I have received on
this forum I have struck out. Starting
to think I have made a mistake buying
the Maximum.
Time will tell.

Steve
 
Made sure what I told you was correct. Removed two forearm screws and it slides off.
