Real talk, you can go buy a gun today and you probably should (maybe not and maybe not today). It's twenty minutes. Then sign up for some how tos, probably at the place you bought it from and take a few classes. Shoot until you get a good feel for it, then plan to shoot every now and then or as often as you want.
Yes, it's a terrible industry run my terrible people. No you're not John Wick, but fascist need speed bumps, and the police don't care about you at best.
If you’re encouraging responsible ownership the very first step is secure storage.
A gun safe and a separate ammo safe.
That is the absolute first step to ensuring there are no accidental discharges. Most people are shot with their own gun, in their own home, by themselves or a family member.
Yep! I'm planning on purchasing a firearm in the next year. But I'm moving first so rather than move safes and firearms across state lines I'm waiting. Because there's little in life that's dumber than leaving around an expensive weapon that's serial number is tied to your name
