What action should you take if you experience a misfire?

Pull the trigger again

Keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction and wait

When experiencing a misfire, it is important to first ensure the firearm is pointed in a safe direction and then wait for at least 30 seconds. Pulling the trigger again or shaking the firearm can be dangerous as there may be a delayed discharge or further malfunctions. Immediately unloading the firearm may also not be necessary as the cause of the misfire can be determined after waiting and inspecting the firearm.
