Frequently Asked Questions

What are the 4 cardinal rules of gun safety?

The 4 cardinal rules are: 1. Always assume the gun is loaded. 2. Never point your gun at anything you do not want to destroy. 3. Be sure of your target and what is around it. 4. Keep your trigger finger indexed outside the trigger guard until ready to fire.

How should one properly aim a firearm?

Proper aiming involves aligning the front sight within the rear sight notch. Crucially, you must focus intently on the front sight, as the human eye cannot simultaneously focus on multiple planes like the front sight, rear sight, and target.

What is the correct breathing technique for shooting?

For shooting, follow a breathing cycle: inhale, exhale, and then hold your breath for approximately 3.5 seconds before initiating the trigger press. This breath hold stabilizes the firearm.

Why is follow-through important in marksmanship?

Follow-through is essential as it involves maintaining your shooting position, sight alignment, and mental focus throughout the entire shot process, even after the shot breaks. This prevents disturbing the aim and ensures accuracy.
