10 rules of shooting safety

This is to protect the people around you. As
long as the muzzle is pointed in a safe direction if it were to accidently go off then there would be no worries because the muzzle was pointed in a safe direction.
ALWAYS point the muzzle in a safe direction.
NextMenu
If you treat it as if it were loaded at all times
then hopefully this should keep you safe at all times.
Treat every firearm with the same respect as you would a loaded one.

My cousin was hunting for deer. It was deer
season and not turkey season. He was told by his father to shoot. He replied “Dad its not turkey season!”
A turkey had gotten in-between the deer and him. Its important to know what is in front of and behind your target so you accidentally don’t shoot an animal that’s not in season or more importantly you don’t kill someone.
Be sure of your target and what is in front of
it and behind it.

This keeps everyone safe. There can be no
accidental firing without a loaded firearm. `This can protect little kids who don’t know
what they are doing around a firearm.
Unload firearms when not in use.
NextMenu
This is mainly to protect the weapon and the
ammunition. This is to help avoid denting or scratching your firearm.
For the ammunition side of things if you don’t handle it carefully you could drop a round and it could accidently go off . Very slim chance however its still possible.
Best way is a case.
Handle firearms and Ammunition carefully
NextMenu
Know what area is safe to shoot in and stay in
that area.
Know your safe zone-of-fire and stick to it.
NextMenu
If you are angry and upset its ok to shoot and
take out a little frustration on a target however, don’t skip any safety rules! Be safe stay as calm as possible and have fun to help your mood. No one’s mood is improved if they hurt themselves or someone else.
Control your emotions when it comes to safety.
NextMenu
Ricochets happen and when they do you want
to be wearing eye protection! The casing can bounce back and hit you in the eye as well or maybe someone in the next lane is shooting and one of there casings can fly and hit you in the eye.
Hearing protection I think is self-explanatory. Guns are loud and you should protect your hearing from loud noises.
Wear ear and eye protection.
NextMenu
Self-explanatory really. You need to have a clear mind to be able to
make clear and safe decisions. Would you trust this guy with a gun?
Don’t drink alcohol or take drugs before or
while handling firearms.
NextMenu
This could mean any number of things, but as
long as you are safe no trouble should come to you. Use your head. If something says don’t shoot check it out first. Then follow your instincts.
Beware of additional circumstances which require added caution or safety awareness
