You should check the barrels of a firearm for obstructions both before loading the firearm and after every shot. By doing so, you ensure that there are no blockages that could potentially cause a malfunction or an accident. Checking before loading the firearm helps prevent loading a projectile into a blocked barrel, which could lead to a dangerous situation. Checking after every shot is important to confirm that the barrel remains clear and safe for subsequent shots. This comprehensive approach to checking for obstructions helps maintain the safety and proper function of the firearm throughout its use.
