The first one is correct in an odd roundabout way. You can tell if the weapon is loaded by its weight. If the weapon has any weight whatsoever, i.e. it exists, it is treated as if it is loaded. Is there a weapon on the ground in front of you? It's loaded. Have you been holding it for a while? It's loaded. Did you clear it then put it on the ground and walk away for a bit? Surprise! It's magically loaded again.

is that a leaked copy of a police training guide?

Best way to check if a gun is loaded is by pulling the trigger.

You should shoot yourself with small caliber bullets to build up immunity to larger ones.

Verify if the firearm is loaded by checking for a bullet while looking down the barrel. Optionally, ask a friend for help, just point it towards them for a quick check.

Reynholm is so thoughtful, he wouldn't want the bullet to go to waste.

[–] Zomg@piefed.world 5 points 2 hours ago

Wow! Very safety! :^)

Unironically there's training where they show trainees 2fps videos of people quick-drawing on cops, and they don't pass until they shoot the frame the person reaches in a pocket, since theres zero frames between seeing a gun and getting shot.

[–] Slayer@infosec.pub 9 points 2 hours ago

Yeah, I recommend pointing a gun at police, that solves the problem real quick
