I am sure that this subject has been coverd before but it can never be said too many times. Yesterday I was at _____________gun shop in ________. I walked in the door to a customer pointing a handgun rite at my face while he was shopping at the counter being helped by 2 employee's no less. I am allways amazed how many people know nothing about proper muzzle disipline in gun shops or at the range. Nothing says "I am clueless, careless or ignorent" with gun handling skill than muzzle infractions. My Dad tought me at an early age that you can not teach a dumb person the definition of stupid. However I will try anyway because if only one person reads this and never sweeps themself or another person again than this thread could save a life.
For you that need it said here is basic gun safety rules:
1. Treat all guns as loaded at all times
2. NEVER POINT A GUN AT ANYTING YOU DO NOT INTEND TO DESTROY!!!
3. Keep your finger off the trigger and out of the trigger guard till you are ready to fire
4. Be sure of your target and what is behind it (proper backstop) before you fire
5. NEVER BREAK RULES 1-4
These are the minimum of saftey. Please chime in as I am sure that someone who needs to hear this is reading this.
Be safe have fun
