You must first understand that not all firearms are the same. Depending on what model you have, you must follow all safety rules in order to ensure that you and those you love are protected. You must familiarize yourself with the pistol or revolver. You must know how to safely load and unload. Handling and carrying it is very important too. In addition to this, you should always keep up with the instructions and rules. Knowing the state regulations on firearms should be a priority too.
- Firearms should be unloaded – If not in use, of course. However, when you don’t intend to use them, you should keep it secured in a very secured place after you triple check. To be sure, you should keep the ammunition and the actual pistol in different places. You should know that it’s solely your responsibility to prevent your children from reaching the item. A loaded gun should be nowhere near other people, cars or buildings. That’s not the right place to fire them. If you do give it to someone, it should be your priority to check that the gun is unloaded after they have used it. To be clear, you should double and triple check yourself that the gun doesn’t have ammunition inside.
- Always use the correct ammunition – If you own a gun, you must assume the responsibility that comes with it. There’s no other way to put it. This is why you need to ensure that you know what ammunition to use with your firearm. If you use the wrong one, you will injure yourself and ruin the gun. You will find the correct information by contacting the customer service team directly or reading through the manual. If the bullets got wet, you should dispose of them safely. In a proper way. Do not dry it out and use it with your pistol as you will severely harm yourself.
- If the trigger fails, handle with care – This can be inevitable. If you are in this situation, keep the muzzle pointed towards a safe direction that is away from your body and others. You then should very slowly and carefully open the action, unload the ammunition and dispose of the cartridge straight away in a safe manner. If you leave the cartridge inside, it means that the gun is loaded and it can go off at any time, anywhere.
- Ensure you know what is your target – It’s general knowledge that once you fire the gun, you lose control of where the bullet goes and what it will strike. Thus, it’s essential that you know exactly what you shoot at. If you injure something or someone, you can risk being sentenced to jail for disregard for the safety of others. It’s very important that you know how far the bullet goes and in what direction.
