Also, just so no one gets confused, you will learn what all of these malfunctions are in boot camp and how to fix them BUT during the live fire exercise you ARE NOT ALLOWED TO fix these malfunctions. They don't trust recruits to do that, too many have "broken blue" attempting in the past. Instead the instruction (as I recall) is to maintain the weapon pointed at the target and raise your left hand and shout "misfire".

You will be briefed on exactly how to act, but this is how it was when I was there.
