Which of the following is NOT one of the four fundamentals of marksmanship?

Explanation:
Accuracy during a shot hinges on how you control stability, breathing, sight alignment, and trigger pressure. The four fundamentals are about these on-shot controls: maintaining a steady position for a stable aim; using controlled breathing to minimize movement; aligning the sights and keeping a clear sight picture for accurate aiming; and applying a smooth trigger squeeze to release the shot without disturbing the sights. Weapon cleaning is essential for keeping the firearm reliable, but it’s a maintenance task done outside the firing sequence, not a factor in executing the shot. That’s why it isn’t one of the four fundamentals.
