As long as the sighting device Is not aimed at the goal The pointing finger outside the To hold the trigger! 3. Be sure of your goal! When you take a weapon, a psk is always made: Personal Security check (PSK) 1. Open the shutter 2 cm, If closure is closed 2. Check cartridge bearing 3. Control magazine Before entering the shooting range: A) the PSK is carried out (The magazine is no longer inserted); (B) the running control has been carried out; C) the series fire safety is switched on (white Point visible) and secured; D) the closure is opened and with the closure holder Blocked. In shooting range: (A) the open-air storm gun, Series fire arrestor on white, secured, without Magazine, in the rifle rack; B) the assault rifle may only be used in the shooting position Loading.

Exactly. I waited for the guy to say that if you are looking make upgrades on your weapon bring it in unloaded and in a carrying case. I'm not going to act like I'm the smartest guy ever. Seeing this video immediately took me back to a time I was trying to pawn a .22 handgun. Even though I'd made sure the chamber was cleared and the mag in a total different pocket. before i left my residence because my handgun permit needed to be renewed. I also transported it with the gun in the glovebox and mag in the center console. I'd be damned if I run into the cop that decides to go crazy after I let him know about the firearm. An then get shot for pulling a gun out of my pocket that is cleared and doesnt have the mag in . . Side note. My firearm will not fire unless the mag is the gun. So at the time I truly thought I was taking the proper precautions while transporting the weapon on my way to pawn it. . . But I did take it into the pawnshop in my back pocket because I was also carrying in my .22 rifle as well. I checked that the chamber was clear as I got into the car and when I arrived. So I triple checked. I pulled the mag out first. Then took the firearm out of my back pocket always pointed at the ground and laid it on the counter. I unfortunately did not think of the shop owner being upset that I had the handgun in my pocket because I did ask if he'd be interested before I pulled it out after he asked where I had it. I'm kind of ashamed I didnt think to bring it in inside a caring case. I would like to think if I had owned one at the time that I'd have brung it in like that. But I cant say for sure because I didnt. I truly thought I was being as cautious as possible. And after having this presented to me it makes all the sense in the world.. at least you can be sure I'll always do so from this point on. Thanks.

I use to work at a gun shop, and that shit happens more than you would think. Usually military, vets, and police. Even caught employees out. The rule was any time we passed the gun between employees we cleared it again. Never cared if someone came in with a hot gun, as long as they were safe, and warned me. One old lady came in with a little derringer, and I asked if it was loaded (not like it mattered cause I was gonna clear it anyway), and she thought it would be funny to say "idk," while waving it around with her finger on the trigger. She flagged my head first, I started to dive behind the counter but before I could she turned and flagged all the customers standing behind her. My dive to the floor instantly changed to diving on her, and grabbing her wrist to point the gun towards the ceiling. All the employees and customers around me were just standing there half shitting themselves and half dumb struck. I definitely thought someone was going to die. Needless to say, she didn't get to handle that gun or any other guns in the store again. Put it behind the counter and bought it.

Me too. Honestly, even the guards here in the Philippines are careless about where they point their guns. I've been swept several times by now by guards who just casually carry their shotguns around, slung around their neck and hand on the handle. But at least no finger on the trigger. Still, its just annoying to have any gun sweep across your position. Please people be more mindful of where you're pointing that thing. I'd say it's just goddamn rude. It doesn't even make sense to carry loaded shotguns around. :\ Just keep a pistol in the holster.

I have an AKM, and while at most ranges we are only allowed to load a certain number of rounds into a mag, but after I use all the rounds in the mag I always pull the lever back twice to make sure nothing ejects. I taught my nephew the same thing when I let him shoot my AK and right before he went into the Marines. I don't have my CPL yet, I don't even keep my 9mm loaded, mag out of the gun and again double pull on the slide to make sure the chamber is empty. That habit actually prevented an accident involving myself, because I was practicing dry firing my 9mm, and in this case I pulled the mag out, and before I went to dry fire the gun, I pulled the slide back to look into the chamber, and a round flew out of the chamber. Shooting range I go to is also a gun shop. I keep my 9mm in its original manufacturer's box along with the mags. So when I present the weapon its not on me. I do have 1 mag at home that is always loaded, but never in my 9mm, and I don't bring that mag with me when I do go to the range / gun shop. I just try to develop and re-enforce good habits. While I also have military friends/family to assist me with getting used to the firearm.

I've been to gun ranges where people wave barrels around when they're holding a loaded weapon pointed at me with their finger on the trigger. I've seen idiots at the gun range actually sweep up brass and put it right under the feet of other shooters, not understanding the purpose of sweeping brass up. I've walked into too many gun ranges where the second you walk through the door onto the actual range to shoot, you're walking on a layer of spent shell casings. Most of the people there were 35 and under and didn't even understand apparently, that you need to sweep your brass up so that nobody holding a firearm loses their balance and falls, while holding a Loaded firearm. I'm very pleased to see you guys put out these kind of videos. Never be bashful, it's better to embarrass or anger people, than allow them to kill themselves with a stupid mistake.

I was raised to the point that I would get cracked in the face if I passed the barrel, empty or not, past a person or handle it otherwise lackadaisical. I think people need to stop being so comfortable with their gun and understand what it can do. About seven years ago my buddy was playing around with his AR in the house like a fool as usual, and he did his little tap rack clear he likes doing. Well guess what, he had a loaded magazine in it and forgot. Pulled the trigger to release the firing pin and literally, I shit you not, popped a 5.56 round about a foot and a half above my head out the ceiling. I was sitting on the bed and he was standing up facing me with the barrel at about a 45 degree angle. Had it been about 6" lower I would be dead today. His dad came in (who is a police officer and army vet) and grabbed the rifle, cleared it and then decked him right in the face. I thought that was an ok punishment......but he deserved it.

That's what happens when you don't have gun licensing. Here in Canada we have to take a firearms course for non restricted and restricted. Then apply for a firearms license. During the course you learn how to safely handle all types of firearms. Like muzzle control and how to clear a firearm safely. You then have to pass a practical test and written test.

@4:52 - "...liberals trying to take our rights away from us..." I'm probably what most folks would call a "liberal" (and an Army vet), and I own several firearms. I don't want to "take our rights away from us", but I am in favor of reasonable standards, requirements, and yes even restrictions on firearm ownership and possession. Carrying a firearm comes with an implied and quite serious responsibility, and quite frankly, I feel that many people who choose to carry don't fully understand that responsibility. Personally, I believe that anyone who chooses to carry should also be required to certify on a regular basis with their firearm, both in marksmanship and safety standards. I don't think it is unreasonable to require at least a bi-annual certification, which is the same standard as most law enforcement agencies. These tools that we carry can end a life in a split-second, and that power must be respected, it must be reserved only for those who can demonstrate that they fully understand that power. Sometimes people forget that, as demonstrated in this video, so I don't see anything wrong with requiring that the skills and knowledge required to responsibly carry a firearm be reinforced through retraining on some regular basis. Perhaps that kind of "gun law" or whatever you want to call it, would cut down on the kinds of irresponsible behavior that was discussed in this video. Is something like that really unreasonable? Would something like that really deprive people of their 2nd Amendment rights, or would it merely serve to prove in some way that people are safe enough, skilled enough, and thoughtful enough to handle the awesome responsibility that comes with carrying a device that can end a life so easily?

I agree, many brain dead conservatives think that their gun rights are getting taken away when really liberals want to restrict the accessibility of getting a gun. I guess extra training and a background check must be dreadful enough to call it "taking away our rights".

I agree with the video entirely, but in the future a video on the “correct” way to bring a gun into the store would be helpful also for beginners. For example: Do you want the weapon just unloaded, or the chamber visually open as well? Do we carry the unloaded gun in hand or secured in a case? This may be obvious to the experienced folks, but not so obvious to others. Thanks for the info.

[@gregorytaylor862]

Its not always a good idea to keep your breach open all the time like that. For one, you're putting constant tension on the recoil spring (If the weapon has one) and that can actually cause damage. Second, you run the risk of slamming the slide or bolt by accident, which in some weapons, especially precision target pistols, is a bad thing. It's better to bring the gun in its case, wait for the clerk to ask you to present it, take it out of the case with the barrel pointing directly down or up and away from any people, remove any magazines and clear the breach in front of the clerk before handing it to them (or setting it back on the counter). That way they are confident that the weapon they are receiving is truly unloaded. And expect them to do EXACTLY the same thing when they receive it.

[@cameronberry1959]

Any time you can- Call ahead. Whether you need a gunsmith, or you want to sell. Just call the store before leaving home. They will tell you what they want as far as how to bring it in. It doesn't dawn on you halfway through your gun store trip "I need to pull this thing out". If you need to pull it out, that is likely the whole reason for the trip. I have only been able to think of 3 circumstances to bring it in apart from just carrying (in which case it DOESN'T leave the holster) 1- gunsmith needs to work on it 2- you intend on selling the gun 3- leather shop is making a custom holster and needs to inspect the guns. (that one is extremely specific though, you don't need to pull it out to see if your Springfield xd will fit in the blackhawk holster at the end of the isle, it will. Much more directed at things like a hand crafted western gun belt for your revolvers and your belt line) 1 or 3, they should know in advance. Have them in a case and already made safe at home with slide/chamber open. Don't leave loaded mags in the case, don't leave any ammo at all in the case. Just the gun. They may give you additional safety instructions they want, during your talk. 2- again, it should have been discussed at least a little before coming in with the gun. make the gun safe, put the lock on it, put it in the case with all the (empty) magazines and accessories you intend to sell with it. 1 2 and 3 let them remove them from the case and let them verify its clear.

[@davidoftheforest]

you put it in a case

[@AMomentInTimeProductions]

yeah i think that is a good rule though they are some exceptions, if the workers at the gun shop ask for the gun lets say you wanted something repaired or something isn't working right and need help or need a sight fitted on the gun, then that is an exception but don't be a lunkhead carry another gun holstered and bring the gun in question in a box or something with the slide held back with no magazine in it, showing it's not loaded..

[@bigdummy9844]

Any time I needed to take my gun to a gun store, needing a screw for the sight, a holster, whatever, I've left the gun in the car, unloaded & locked back. Went in the store, talked to clerk, said what I needed and if it was ok to go back to car & bring it in.

I am from the UK. I was trained in the Army with firearms and with a local gun club before we were not allowed to possess a handgun. When I had my pistols, and rifles, and needed to take them to the shop for repair or whatever, I made sure the weapon was clear, no magazine fitted and it was in a box or gunslip with the slide removed or the bolt / working parts removed. Maybe this practice ought to be used in your shop. It's not the gun that kills, it is the person using it.

True story

[@juliotoro6019]

You are a 100% correct on your subject. Good info for everyone who owns a firearm. You just don't pull your weapon out PERIOD if your going to a gun shop for an accessory or something else. Probably the best way to do it, if your going to take your firearm to a gun shop for an accessory, is to clear the weapon at home, ensure no rounds are anywhere near the weapon, put it in its case with a safety lock and then head on over to the gun shop. Now don't just put the case on the counter and open quickly. Just ask the store rep what your looking for, if on hand then ask if it's ok to open your case and maybe unlock the weapon if you need too. It may sound as over kill, but you would look like someone who knows and cares about gun safety. Even if it your concealed carry weapon, you should always have a case for it in your truck or vehicle, because some places won't even let you walk into the store without it being in a case. There that's my .50 cents worth on the issue .

[@GruntProof]
