Facts
bullseye Ten Commandments of Gun Safety

  • Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction
  • Don't rely on your gun's safety
  • Firearms should be unloaded when not actually in use
  • Be sure of your target and what's beyond it
  • If your gun fails to fire when the trigger is pulled, handle with care

  • Always wear eye and ear protection when shooting
  • Use proper ammunition
  • Be sure the barrel is clear of obstructions before shooting
  • Don't alter or modify your gun and have it serviced regularly
  • Learn the mechanical and handling characteristics of the firearm you are using
bullseye More Safety Rules
  • ALL GUNS ARE ALWAYS LOADED
    The only exception to this occurs when one has a weapon in his hands and he has personally unloaded it for checking. As soon as he puts it down, Rule 1 applies again.
  • NEVER LET THE MUZZLE COVER ANYTHING YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO DESTROY
    You may not wish to destroy it, but you must be clear in your mind that you are quite ready to if you let that muzzle cover the target. To allow a firearm to point at another human being is a deadly threat, and should always be treated as such.
  • KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET
    This we call the Golden Rule because its violation is responsible for about 80 percent of the firearms disasters we read about.
  • BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET
    You never shoot at anything until you have positively identified it. You never fire at a shadow, or a sound, or a suspected presence. You shoot only when you know absolutely what you are shooting at and what is beyond it.
