Which of the following describes the action of pointing a firearm's muzzle in a safe direction?

Muzzle control
Trigger discipline
Sight alignment
Tagging

The correct answer is: Muzzle control

Pointing a firearm's muzzle in a safe direction is an essential firearms safety practice known as muzzle control. This action ensures that the firearm is always pointed in a direction where an accidental discharge will not cause harm to people or property. Keeping the muzzle pointed in a safe direction is a fundamental rule in firearm safety to prevent injuries and accidents. Trigger discipline refers to keeping the finger off the trigger until ready to shoot, sight alignment involves properly aligning the sights for accurate shooting, and tagging is not a term related to firearms safety.
