NRA Basic Pistol Shooting Course Complete Guide

What should you do if your firearm jams while shooting?



If your firearm jams while shooting, keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction, disengage the safety,
and attempt to clear the jam by removing the magazine and checking the chamber. If necessary, tap,
rack, and reassess. Always follow proper clearing procedures. ✔️✔️



What is the primary purpose of a firearm safety?



The primary purpose of a firearm safety is to prevent accidental discharges by blocking the trigger or
firing mechanism until you are ready to fire. However, it is important not to rely solely on the safety and
to always handle the firearm as if it were loaded. ✔️✔️



How should you react if a firearm is accidentally discharged?



If a firearm is accidentally discharged, immediately ensure everyone is safe and check for any injuries.
Keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction, and assess the situation. Report the incident to the
appropriate authority if necessary. ✔️✔️



What is the most effective way to stop a firearm from firing if it becomes unsafe to use?



If a firearm becomes unsafe to use, the most effective way to stop it from firing is to immediately
remove the magazine (if applicable), clear the chamber, engage the safety (if present), and ensure the
firearm is securely stored. ✔️✔️



What should you always do when leaving a shooting area or range?



When leaving a shooting area or range, ensure that your firearm is unloaded, the chamber is clear, and
the action is open. Always follow the range rules for safely securing your firearm before leaving the area.
✔️✔️

, What is the recommended distance for a proper shooting stance?



The recommended distance for a proper shooting stance is to stand with your feet shoulder-width apart,
knees slightly bent, and weight balanced forward to maintain stability and control of the firearm while
shooting. ✔️✔️



Why should you avoid using a firearm if you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol?



Using a firearm while under the influence of drugs or alcohol impairs your judgment, reaction time, and
coordination, greatly increasing the risk of accidents or unsafe handling of the firearm. Always ensure
you are sober and focused when using a firearm. ✔️✔️



What is the correct procedure for handling a firearm after it has been cleaned?



After cleaning a firearm, ensure it is completely reassembled and functioning properly. Verify that the
firearm is unloaded and that the chamber is clear before handling or storing it. ✔️✔️



What is the safest way to handle a firearm when you are fatigued or distracted?



When fatigued or distracted, it is safest not to handle a firearm at all. If you must handle a firearm,
ensure you have full control and focus, maintaining safety protocols and not rushing. ✔️✔️



How should you respond if you see a firearm being handled by someone who is not following safety
protocols?



If you see someone mishandling a firearm, calmly intervene by asking them to stop, verify that the
firearm is unloaded, and help ensure they understand and follow proper safety procedures. If necessary,
involve a responsible authority. ✔️✔️
