Q

Firearm General Safety Principles (4)

A
  1. Treat all firearms as if they are loaded.
  2. Be conscious of where the muzzle of your firearm is pointed at all times (Never allow the muzzle of your firearm to cover another human being unless it is required by your duties as a police officer).
  3. Keep your finger off the trigger and on the receiver until your sights are on the target and you have decided to fire; and
  4. Be sure of your target. (Know what it is, what is in line with it and what is behind it. Never fire at anything you have not positively identified).
