When preparing to shoot a firearm, what is the correct order of operations?

Aim, Ready, Shoot
Ready, Aim, Shoot
Load, Aim, Shoot
Load, Ready, Aim

The correct answer is: Ready, Aim, Shoot

When preparing to shoot a firearm, the correct order of operations is to first ensure the firearm is in a safe and ready-to-fire position. This may involve loading the firearm and making sure the safety is off. Next, one should carefully aim at the target. Lastly, the trigger can be pulled to fire the gun. Option A is incorrect because aiming should be done before shooting, not after. Option C is incorrect because loading the firearm should be done before aiming and shooting. Option D is incorrect because readying the firearm should be done before aiming and shooting.
