This blog is part of our "Quick Read" series.


Understanding the basic rules of firearm safety is the foundation of responsible gun ownership. Whether you're a seasoned gun owner or a beginner, these guidelines should always be followed to ensure safety for yourself and those around you.


1. Treat Every Firearm as If It’s Loaded

Always assume every gun is loaded. Even if you’re sure it’s unloaded, treat it with the same caution as a loaded firearm to prevent accidents.


2. Keep Your Finger Off the Trigger Until Ready to Shoot

Proper trigger discipline is crucial. Keeping your finger off the trigger until you’re ready to fire prevents accidental discharges.


3. Never Point the Muzzle at Anything You Don’t Intend to Destroy

Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction.


4. Be Sure of Your Target and What’s Beyond It

Ensure you’re fully aware of what you’re shooting at and what's behind it. Bullets can travel far beyond the intended target.


5. Safe Storage

When not in use, your firearm should be securely stored. A biometric safety device like B.O.S. Lock allows quick access while ensuring unauthorized users, especially children, cannot reach your firearm.


By following these basic rules of firearm safety, you ensure responsible ownership and prevent unnecessary accidents.


Stay vigilant, stay responsible, and always prioritize safety.
