Editing The appropriate way of working with and taking advantage of guns

There are many reasons that a hunter would get seriously injured, but the leading cause is improper pistol handling. The logical hunter, however, takes careful note of all of the safety precautions involving his or her weapon and learns the basics of handgun safety for hunters. One of the first fundamental laws of hunting safety is to always treat the firearm as if it is loaded. This is a universal guideline for pistol safety as it does not refer to any actual type of firearm. One should never be flippant with a handgun or wave it around, point it at others or work carelessly with it. In relationship to the aforementioned law of pistol safety, it is important to be responsible and keep the firearm unloaded until it is ready for use on the hunting grounds. Many a story has been told about pistol injuries relating to guns going off in truck compartments and shooting through truck seating, relating to the notion that the handgun was not only properly stored but that the improperly stored handgun was loaded. When on the hunting field, it is important to remember hunting safety techniques. If the fingers are more apt to be near the firearm's trigger, keep them folded and away from any notches until the prey is well within scope range. One false move with a finger too close to the trigger could result in accidental firing resulting in injury or death. Keep the firearms pointed in a safe direction. This, of course, means that the firearm should never be pointed at another person. Many a story has been told of guns pointed at hunting companions in jest, only for the firearms to accidentally go off and injure or kill the unfortunate companion. For this reason and for reasons involving common sense, keep the firearms pointed somewhere safe and away from yourself and people at all times. This rule applies whether the handgun is loaded or not. As a reference to the aforementioned rules, one of the fundamental foundations of firearm safety is expecting the unexpected. If one is looking down the firearm barrel, there is no predictable way to ensure that the handgun will not accidentally fire from powder residue or any other elements that could be lodged in the gun. Make sure that the handgun is never dropped. This can result in accidental firing, which can send a bullet or powder in a very chaotic and unpredictable direction. Instead, always hold the pistol with both hands and treat it as carefully as possible. Never let a person who is intoxicated in any way handle a firearm. Alcohol and drugs slow the reason factor on people, resulting in a lapse of reason and better judgment. An intoxicated person may improperly operate a firearm, leading to injury or possible death. All in all, these fundamental rules should be followed if one wants to ensure a safe and happy hunting trip. Without paying attention to safety regulations, the risk factor of the average hunting trip more than doubles and injury is almost inevitable. When hunting or handling a handgun of any kind, be safe.
