Allow proper distance (eye relief) between a scope and your eye when firing a scoped rifle, shotgun or pistol. Wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes from flying particles. Wear hearing protection (shooting earplugs or muffs) to guard against such damage. Unprotected, repeated exposure to gunfire can cause hearing damage. ALWAYS WEAR EAR AND EYE PROTECTION WHEN SHOOTING. Always keep the chamber empty and the “safety” in the on safe position unless shooting is imminent.Ĥ. Remember, merely removing the magazine does not mean the chamber is unloaded. Make certain the firearm does not inadvertently contain any ammunition. WHENEVER YOU HANDLE ANY FIREARM, OR HAND IT TO SOMEONE, ALWAYS OPEN THE ACTION IMMEDIATELY AND VISUALLY CHECK THE FIREARM’S CHAMBER TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE FIREARM IS COMPLETELY UNLOADED. While it is a good idea to test your firearm’s mechanical “safety” periodically for proper function, never test the “safety” while your firearm is loaded or pointed in an unsafe direction.ģ.

Therefore it is critical to read and understand the owner’s manual for every firearm which explains the safe operation of the firearm. Some firearms do not have a mechanical “safety.” Many target firearms, lever-action firearms and pistols do not have manual “safety” mechanisms. Always treat this firearm with the respect due a loaded, ready-to-fire firearm. Remember, safe gun handling does not stop with your firearm’s mechanical “safety” devices, it starts there. See “Operation of the Safety” for instructions on the operation of this firearm’s “safety.” Mechanical “safeties” merely aid safe gun handling and are no excuse for pointing your firearm’s muzzle in an unsafe direction. Mechanical “safeties” are designed to place your firearm in a safer status, and no guarantee can be made that the firearm will not fire even if the “safety” is in the on safe position. The word “safety” describes a firearm’s trigger block mechanism, sear block mechanism, hammer block mechanism or firing pin block mechanism. LIKE ANY MECHANICAL DEVICE, A “SAFETY” CAN SOMETIMES FAIL IT CAN BE JARRED OR INADVERTENTLY MANIPULATED INTO AN UNSAFE CONDITION. NEVER RELY TOTALLY ON YOUR FIREARM’S MECHANICAL “SAFETY” DEVICE. Be extremely alert and aware of all persons and property within the range of your ammunition.Ģ. Never point any firearm at anything you do not intend to shoot. ALWAYS KEEP THE MUZZLE OF YOUR FIREARM POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE CERTAIN IT IS UNLOADED.
