Summary
At the gun range, three common safety violations can jeopardize shooters and bystanders. Unsafe reholstering occurs when shooters muzzle themselves or force a firearm into a holster, often due to soft holsters or poor positioning. Careless muzzle direction during administrative handling—such as reloading or clearing malfunctions—can lead to accidental discharges if the muzzle sweeps beyond a safe angle. The lingering finger violation happens when the trigger finger remains on the trigger during non-shooting tasks like reloading or moving, increasing the risk of unintended discharge. These issues are preventable with proper training and awareness.
