Re: Things I Learn From Newbie Shooters
The sad thing is, the newbie shooters aren't the only ones you have to watch out for. There are plenty of people who have been around firearms their whole lives, but were never really taught safe gunhandling. Some may have been taught what they know by their fathers who never really learned it themselves. Some may handle firearms daily during the course of their jobs like military and police. I can't count the number of times I've heard shooters say "Nothing scares me more than a bunch of cops at the range" or something similar. Kind of the familiarity breeds complacency concept.
