Three Cardinal Rules for Safe Gun Handling
- Keep your finger off the trigger until ready to use!
- Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction!
- Keep the gun unloaded until ready to use!
Believe this: A firearm is always loaded!
Safe Storage of Firearms in the Home
- Store firearms unloaded.
- Store firearms in a locked safe or with a trigger lock.
- Store ammunition in a locked container separate from guns.
Know this: Unlawful storage of a loaded firearm may result in imprisonment or fine.
Rules for Children Concerning All Firearms
Teach children to follow these life-saving rules whenever they discover a firearm:
- Stop what you are doing immediately: Do not touch the gun.

Remember this: Children know where everything is stored and they will access it when you least expect.
