Frequently Asked Questions

What are the four universal rules of gun safety?

The four universal rules are: 1. Treat every weapon as if it is loaded. 2. Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot. 3. Never point your firearm at anything you are not willing to destroy. 4. Know your target and what is beyond it.

A negligent discharge, or ND, is when a firearm fires unintentionally due to improper handling, lack of safety precautions, or a mechanical malfunction. It highlights a failure in safe gun handling practices.

Why is muzzle control important when handling firearms?

Muzzle control is crucial because it ensures the firearm is never pointed at anything you aren't willing to destroy. This prevents accidental shootings, even if a trigger is pulled unexpectedly or the gun discharges unintentionally.
