    Before you pick up a gun, you should definitely familiarize yourself with the four rules of gun safety. Just give them all a careful read, and spend a few minutes making sure you comprehend them. They are simple and obvious if you grow up around guns, but if you have never dealt with firearms they are the key to ensuring that you never have a gun go off when you don’t intend it to.

    • Treat every gun as if it were loaded.
    • Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
    • Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target.
    • Be sure of your target and what is beyond it.
