APPLY THE
FUNDAMENTALS
Whether you’re shooting the combat
pistol, shotgun or assault rifle, apply
the same fundamentals:
1) Sight Alignment –
center the front sight
vertically and
horizontally within the
rear notch.
2) Trigger Control release the trigger
without disturbing the sight picture.
3) Follow Through concentrate on your
sights long enough after the gun goes off to
be able to “call your shot”.
Careful, consistent application
of these basic skills is the key
to accurate shooting and if you
can shoot a pistol well using
the basics, you should have
little or no difficulty with the
shotgun or assault rifle.
SAFET
Y
FIRST
1. Before firing any gun,
make certain your shots
will land in a safe place.
2. Be “muzzle conscious” –
know where the pistol is
pointing at all times and
never point it at anything
you don’t want to harm or
3. Make sure your
holster does not
allow the muzzle to
point at any part of
your body.
