Gun owner fired gun into apartment wall-Judge sentenced him to take a gun safety course and fine

[@leoguy1609]

Firearm owner since 1978 and bought my first Glock in 1988. I've only seen Bass Pro Shops ask a new customer to go over a Glock customer safety awareness form and sign it.

[@gunclassutah]

Wow, not surprising though. Maybe these gun owners fined that were not given instruction, could ask the gun dealers to split the bill, ha ha.

[@Quantiples]

If gun safety is a goal, all new guns should be sold with 3-5 snap caps (dummy rounds) for safe dry fire practice. This is a gun law I could get behind.

[@Averagegunenthusiast]

I use snap caps when teaching people to load and unload.

[@gunclassutah]

yes, dummy rounds should be added in to any CCW or other pistol course. I don't think a number of people know what they are used for

[@gunclassutah]

Great tool for both instructors AND gun owners

[@kylewood8327]

Yes, snap caps instead of that stupid lock that nobody uses.

Could’ve been worse. He could’ve been charged and lost his job and ability to carry or own a firearm. Or even worse, killed somebody. Do not put your finger on that trigger till you’ve confirmed clear.

[@Ryan-xq3kl]

In IL he likely would have gotten his "Firearms Owner Identification Card" revoked for such an event. It can always be worse, help us fight the anti-2A tyrants in a disciplined way! We certainly cannot champion negligent discharges lol

[@gunclassutah]

It would behoove instructors to make sure they are covering safety rules, clearing AND proper use of live vs dummy rounds

[@kylewood8327]

Good video

[@gunclassutah]

Thanks

So if I can't hit the target I can't pass your test even though I just got my gun and went through the safety part of your class . Lol I'm sure that's not what you meant but it sounded like it . But if they never owned a gun they are not going to be able to hit targets unless it's at end of barrel when the point the gun

[@fractalshift]

Not true at all. I have seen newbies buy a gun and learn to shoot on the first try, I've seen this multiple times, so it works. It's not rocket science. Point and shoot isn't hard.

[@gunclassutah]

IF they want an NRA certificate, they must have at least 4 groups of 5 shots each, 4 inch groups or better at least 10 feet away. They must also demonstrate safe handling throughout the excercises
