Course Outline

All types of handguns have sights and actions, and they may have safeties or magazines.

A sight is a device used to line up the muzzle with your eye so that you can hit the target. Most handguns have an iron sight, although some specialized handguns have a telescopic, a dot, or a laser sight.
