There are only 5 good gun laws; Treat all firearms as if they are loaded. Always keep your firearm pointed in a safe direction. Finger off the trigger until ready to fire. Be certain of your target, line of fire, and what lies beyond it. Always wear appropriate eye and ear protection.
Perfect list. I also like this one from my old man…
“We can either drink beer or we can shoot guns. But we ain’t drinking and shooting.”
Never was an issue until all my drunk family members started showing up to range day. 🤦
Alcohol and ammunition always make for interesting days at the range.
We might be related...
Ya'll might be REDNECKS if both are present...
Jeff Foxworthy!!!!!!!!
I've got my sign...
The blue collar comedy tour rocked.
hey there's a government agency that deals with those very things and more, must make for some interesting departmental outings.
Even with those 5 you could eliminate the ear protection if you are deaf.
As for real laws - there are WAY too many. There are always exceptions to the rule but laws are either written in stone or written incorrectly. Exceptions be damned.
False. Deaf people can still get tinnitus.
Ear protection is no joke. Double up on it every time you shoot. A single unprotected shot - even from .22 - is permanent irreversible hearing loss/damage.
A single unprotected shot?
Did everyone who fought before ear protection was standardized lose the ability to properly hear?
I don't know, that seems too little but I'm not about to go out and shoot unprotected shots with a hearing test between them I guess
Yes, very much so. Sound is measured in decibels - which is on a logarithmic scale. Immediate hearing damage starts at around 120-130 dB of sound pressure. This varies slightly from person to person, but even a .22 is about 125-130 dB in volume.
Sound is wack so to just give a high level overview - Sound energy doubles every 3 dB, and sound pressure doubles every 6 dB. In other words, you don't want to fuck with it. Gunfire is LOUD.
The guy who invented the suppressor did so because he went completely deaf from shooting too much. Double up on all shooting environments.
I don't know if you know this, but you can take damage in your ears even if you are deaf and it's not damage you want to take just because you've already lost your hearing.
And, an additional point, most frequencies can't be heard by our ears, especially as we age.
But just because we cannot hear those frequencies doesn't mean that a high decibel frequency we can't hear isn't doing damage.
You're right - I did not know that. I should've at least known the ear drums could burst. I don't know enough of the anatomy of the inner ear to know what other damage can be done to someone that can't hear, but there probably is something that can cause pain. Good call.
Your first four are better summarized in three:
The 3 rule standard is better/simpler than the 4 rule standard.
Will adopt.
A really good one is to know what's behind and around the intended target to prevent damage or injury to another person or yourself. I recommend you teach them marksmanship principles. Maybe take them out to training days. It's funny how the UK laughs at America's "crazy" gun laws yet it lets 12 year olds shoot with the MOD. Hypocrisy that doesn't need to be there
This is entirely covered in, "direction of least consequence."
A direction of least consequence isn't necessarily practical
Teach your children these. Have them memorize them. Then they will know what to do if they find one or their friends bring one out to show off with.
I think you're right. If those laws would be followed there would be no ADs or murders.
Think of the CHILDRENS!
