I&#39;m searching for an AR that would specifically cover such gross safety issue. I&#39;m coming up with nothing. Does anyone know where this would be covered with doctrine?<br /><br />Yes, it&#39;s a common sense thing but when paperwork is involved references are needed. Thanks! Is there an Army Regulation that explicitly talks about weapons handling and associated safety concerns therein? 2019-03-04T02:44:22-05:00 SFC Private RallyPoint Member 4418373 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>A Soldier in my Platoon was using their weapon as a means to clamber atop a vehicle much the same way one would use a cane.

Luckily, unlike &quot;don&#39;t give your new stripper girlfriend your bank account info or a general power of attorney&quot;, this common sense thing is covered in a book: <br />TC 3-22.9<br />Chapter 1 <br />SAFE WEAPONS HANDLING<br />RULES OF FIREARMS SAFETY 1-6.<br />Rule 1: Treat Every Weapon as if it is Loaded<br /><br />And you could probably apply some generalized statements from AR 385-10.
