Never tried mine with a round in the chamber. In fact I have never used the lock because I personally see no use for it. If you have kids or some other need to keep your weapon disabled, remove the mag and store them separately and out of reach of children. To me the lock is more of a liability then a safety device.
Never attempt to engage the Taurus Security System on a Taurus pistol with a cartridge in the chamber.
Proceed as follow:
- Remove the magazine;
- Unload the gun by cycling the slide. MAKE SURE THE CHAMBER IS EMPTY;
- Pull the trigger to decock the firing pin;
- Engage the Taurus Security System;
- You may reinsert the magazine. Never engage the Taurus Security System when the firing pin is cocked.
ALWAYS KEEP THE MUZZLE POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION AND FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER.
Never engage the Taurus Security System on your Taurus Pistol with the slide in the open (rearward) position. This will result in permanent damage to your firearm.
