INTRODUCTIONThe INTRATEC TEC-9 is a radically new type of semi-automatic pistol, designed todeliver a high volume of firepower.

It is designed and manufactured in the United States. Extensive research and compu-ter assisted development has been incorporated into this model. Thanks to theadvanced design and modern high speed manufacturing techniques, we can assurelow cost, without compromising quality in materials and workmanship.DESCRIPTIONThe TEC-9 is a semi-automatic pistol which operates by elementary blowback andclosed bolt position. The sights are standard open combat sights. The push in typesafety secu rely locks the firing pi n from traveling forward. It can be fired by one or twohands from most shooting positions.

The tube shaped upper receiver houses the barrel and bolt. The forward end isprovided with ventilation holes for cooling of the barrel and improving sustained fire.The left side of the upper receiver has a slot for the operating handle.The high impact frame forms the magazine well and grip. It also houses the triggermechanism. The frame is attached to the upper receiver by an assembly pin and a diskat the rear.The bolt is recessed at the back to house the striker and firing pin.FUNCTIONINGWhen ready to fire the bolt is in a closed position, the striker and firing pin are held inthe rear position by the sear. When the trigger is pressed the disconnector pulls downthe sear, which disengages the striker. The striker carries the firing pin forward,igniting the chambered round.Simultaneously, as the gas pressure accelerates the bullet, the case pushes the boltrearwards. Due to the much greater mass ofthe bolt compared with the bullet, the bolthas only moved about 1/16" when the bullet leaves the barrel. On its way rearwards, thebolt by the combined actions of the extractor and ejector, throws out the empty case.At the rear, the bolt is stopped by the increasing force of the recoil spring and drivenforward again. The bolt on its way forward catches the top round in the magazine andfeeds it into the chamber and then the TEC-9 is ready to fire once again. The completecycle will take .08 seconds.INSTRUCTIONS FOR USEBefore proceeding to use this weapon a word of caution is in order. The pistol is as safeto handle and use as we can make it, but there is no foolproof firearm. Be sure that themuzzle is pointing in a safe direction at all times, whether the gun is loaded or not.Make safe gun handling a habit. Do not attempt to load and fire this weapon until youare thoroughly familiar with all its safety features and fully understand the operation ofthis firearm.

LOADING THE MAGAZINEPress the cartridges down between themagazine lips. As with all magazines, alight tap on the back ensures a uniformpositioning of the cartridges.*Not found on TEC-9M, TEC-9MS.
