Michigan Concealed Pistol License (CPL) Safety Course Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

Before handling a firearm, what is the first safety rule you should follow?

Check if the firearm is loaded

Turn the safety off

Point the firearm in a safe direction

It is important to always prioritize the safety of yourself and those around you when handling a firearm. While checking if the firearm is loaded is an important step, it is not the first safety rule that should be followed. Turning off the safety is also not the first step as it should only be done when you are ready to fire the gun. Putting on safety glasses is important for eye protection but it is not the first safety rule. The first safety rule to follow before handling a firearm is to always point the firearm in a safe direction to avoid any potential accidents. This means pointing the firearm away from people, animals, or any potential hazards. By following this safety rule, you can prevent any harm or injury from occurring.
