1. Safety Cap is removed before firing
2. Striker is sprung up by the Striker Spring and disengages with shutter
3. On firing, the setback forces the Detent and Spring down and the Shutter moves across aligning the Detonator with the Striker
4. On impact, the Striker is forced onto the Detonator and fires the Stemmed CE, magazine then the main charge.
