+While moving, to lower your weapon, press {{Key press|LCtrl}} x2. This will also reduce your stamina usage while moving which will be described further later. Do {{Key press|LCtrl}} x2 again to raise the gun back up.
+It is advisable to enable your weapon's safety, primarily when tabbing in and out of the game to mitigate an accidental discharge of your gun. The default key bind for this is {{Key press|LCtrl|` (Tilde)}}. Use the bind again to remove the safety, or simply change the fire mode with {{Key press|F}}.
+In Arma, a weapon may either be ''braced'' or ''rested''. A weapon is ''braced'' when a tripod attachment is used to "mount" the gun to cover, or the ground. This ''dramatically'' increases the stability, and decreases the spray intensity, of the firearm. This must be done manually by press {{Key press|C}}. A weapon is ''rested'' when Arma detects that you are holding the gun over cover, in which Arma simulates you "resting" the gun and/or your arms on the cover. This increases stability, and decreases spray, but to a lesser degree than properly ''bracing'' would. As has been insinuated, this is automatic, and requires no manual engagement from you. Whether a weapon is braced or rested is show visibly at the top-right of your HUD.
