      Point the pistol down range and pull the slide backwards until a bullet is chambered in the breach. Point the gun at the target and line up the white dot on the front sight between the two white lines on the rear sight so the front sight is pointing at the spot on the target that you want to shoot.

      Squeeze the trigger slightly until the trigger stops. Don't pull the trigger until you fire it. Once you feel resistance on the trigger, take a breath and hold it. Gently release your breath as you squeeze the trigger, keeping your aim on the target.
