. To comply with Section 26850, a safe handling demonstration
for a double-action revolver shall include all of the following
steps:
(a) Open the cylinder.
(b) Visually and physically inspect each chamber, to ensure that
the revolver is unloaded.
(c) Remove the firearm safety device. If the firearm safety device
prevents any of the previous steps, remove the firearm safety device
during the appropriate step.
(d) While maintaining muzzle awareness and trigger discipline,
load one bright orange, red, or other readily identifiable dummy
round into a chamber of the cylinder and rotate the cylinder so that
the round is in the next-to-fire position. If no readily identifiable
dummy round is available, an empty cartridge casing with an empty
primer pocket may be used.
(e) Close the cylinder.
(f) Open the cylinder and eject the round.
(g) Visually and physically inspect each chamber to ensure that
the revolver is unloaded.
(h) Apply the firearm safety device, if applicable. This
requirement shall not apply to an Olympic competition pistol if no
firearm safety device, other than a cable lock that the department
has determined would damage the barrel of the pistol, has been
approved for the pistol, and the pistol is either listed in
subdivision (b) of Section 32105 or is subject to subdivision (c) of
Section 32105.
