The Ruger P94 is part of the gun manufacturer's popular P-series of centerfire auto-loading handguns. Known for its sleek design, the P94 has a 4.2-inch barrel and can be either a 9 mm or 0.4 caliber. This is a popular weapon amongst law enforcement.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Load the weapon by releasing a tiny lever on the pistol's grip that unleashes the clip. Load this by placing one bullet in at a time. The normal P94 will hold 10 bullets in the clip, also called a magazine. Place the clip back in the grip and slap it shut.

  2. Step 2

    Switch the safety to "off" and pull back the gun's hammer/slide in a fluid motion. This will pull a bullet up from the magazine.

  3. Step 3

    Hold the grip in your dominant hand and place your index finger on the trigger guard. Cup the bottom of the grip with your other hand.

  4. Step 4

    Extend your arm that is gripping the gun straight and bend the elbow of your other other arm at a 90-degree angle. This is the shooting stance.

  5. Step 5

    Aim at the target and pull the trigger. Since this is a semi-automatic, you will have to pull the trigger each time you fire, but not reload until the clip is empty.

Tips & Warnings
  • Wear eye and ear protection. Make sure that no one can walk in front of your firing line before shooting. Avoid the use of alcohol when firing a weapon.
