Gun fighting 101

Congratulations! You have passed the basic marksmanship portion of the training. Now, your real training begins.

First topic: fixing malfunctions. 

Indicator: you press the trigger and the gun does not fire!

Nomenclature: "Tap, Rack, Bang!"

Alternative: If Tap-Rack-Bang does not work, then:

• remove the magazine
• rack the slide a few times to clear the obstruction(s)
• Then "Tap-Rack-Bang"

Here is a video of Clint Smith teaching the same method on a handgun. The idea transfers to a rifle 100%.
