Firearm Safety Rules
Firearm safety rules are intended to prevent accidents from happening. Unfortunately, some people are too lazy to memorize these rules, or too stupid to think the rules apply to them. If you are smart, and you must be if you’re willing to read through a training book like this, you’re going to memorize the following seven firearm safety rules. Keep a copy of these rules in your range bag, gun safe and taped on the mirror in your bathroom. I've been an avid shooter for 15 years, and I still find myself reviewing these rules before I handle a firearm. I know that the moment I become complacent is the moment an accident will occur. Understanding and demonstrating these rules are the cornerstone of building a firm foundation of firearm safety. You can download a copy of these rules by visiting www.FloridaConcealedCarryLaws.com
