The Rules of Gun Safety
By JPFO. November 8, 2021
Safety with firearms is paramount and something to be taken seriously by everyone. New gun owners would be well advised to study, learn and implement the rules and those who are long time gun owners should avoid complacency and continue to strictly follow the rules at all times.
The following is a selection of safety rules from various sources and while nomenclature may vary, the basic message is the same and applies to ALL firearms from small pocket pistols all the way up to high velocity rifles. You cannot call back a bullet once sent. Safety is a mind set.
NRA GUN SAFETY RULES:
1. ALWAYS_ keep the gun pointed in a safe direction.
2. ALWAYS_ keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot.
3. ALWAYS_ keep the gun unloaded until ready to use.
Know your target and what is beyond.
