Felix apparently has had firearm training. He is holding the pistol correctly, and his voice, in my head, sounds authoritative.
I can believe that anyone entering space service has had to go through firearm training, much as most modern militaries require proficiency with firearms, with the exclusion of chaplins, who are regarded as non-combatants, for all members, even cooks. With Felix’s small stature and apparent young age, most people would forget that he had to go through such training.
