How to fire a gun
Treat every firearm as if it were loaded.
There are no exceptions to this rule, not even for empty guns. It is very easy even for professional marksmen to forget whether or not a gun is ready to fire, and the consequences can be extremely serious or even deadly.

(i) A firearm is capable of heavy fire from any distance, but the number one exception to this rule is shooting from a loaded barreled weapon. Wait until the gun has finished firing and when all the shots are fired.; (ii) If a weapon is loaded before you grasp its handle, you risk pulling the trigger and causing an explosion.
