What is allowed to be done when the weapon is in Condition 1?

When a weapon is in Condition 1, it indicates that the pistol is ready for immediate use, meaning it is fully loaded, the safety is off, and the hammer is cocked. This condition allows for instant engagement of a target without the need for additional preparation or manipulation of the firearm.

Firing at a target involves using the weapon in its fully operational state. In this condition, the firearm is prepared for action, ensuring the user can respond quickly and effectively.

The other choices, while relevant to firearm handling, do not apply to Condition 1 in the context of direct engagement. Unloading a weapon or demonstrating that it is clear are processes that typically take place when the firearm is not in a ready-to-fire condition. 'Make Ready' usually refers to preparing a firearm for use, but in Condition 1, the weapon is already considered ready, so there's no additional preparation necessary.
