The Ten Commandments of Firearms Safety
1. ALWAYS treat every gun as if it were loaded.
2. ALWAYS keep the gun pointed in a safe direction.
3. ALWAYS keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot.
4. ALWAYS keep the gun unloaded until ready to use.
5. ALWAYS be sure the gun is safe to operate and the barrel is clear
of any obstruction.
6. ALWAYS use the proper, factory-made ammunition for your
particular gun.
7. ALWAYS know your target and what is beyond it.
8. ALWAYS wear ear and eye protection when shooting.
9. NEVER use alcohol or drugs before or during handling a gun.
10. ALWAYS store guns and ammunition in separate locked containers,
so they are secure and not accessible to unauthorized persons.
What you should know about all safety mechanisms
NEVER completely trust any safety mechanism. Your pistol is equipped
with an effective, well designed safety mechanism.
NO SAFETY MECHANISM, HOWEVER, IS A SUBSTITUTE
FOR PROPER GUN HANDLING. Any safety mechanism can break
down or malfunction. YOU, AND YOU ALONE, ARE THE
ULTIMATE SAFETY MECHANISM.
Remember, there is no such thing as a "childproof” safety or one
which can completely prevent accidental discharge from careless or
irresponsible use. The best safety is proper and applied training in
safe gun handling.
BECOME FAMILIAR WITH YOUR PISTOL, UNDERSTAND THE
INSTRUCTIONS FULLY BEFORE USING IT.
