Gun Safety for Children

Gun Safety for ChildrenGun safety for kids

As most parents know, children must hear the same consistent message over and over again to make sure it becomes part of their everyday processes. Here are some “rules” about firearms that, repeated enough, can help kids at least pause long enough to help them be safe.

Even if you own firearms and teach your children how to use them responsibly, remember that consistent good judgment comes only with maturity and it’s easy and common for youngsters to take chances.

  • Never touch a gun.
  • Immediately leave any area where you see a gun. DON’T TOUCH THE GUN!
  • If you see or find a gun, go find and tell an adult. AGAIN, DON’T TOUCH THE GUN!
  • If you can’t find an adult, call 911 and tell the police.
  • Even if the gun looks like a toy, don’t touch it. If other children are playing with a gun, leave the area and tell an adult.
  • If someone threatens you or talks about bringing a gun to school, speak up. Tell an adult like a parent or teacher.
  • Don’t worry about getting another child into trouble. You may just be saving your own life or a friend’s by alerting an adult.
  • Once you’ve completed these steps, start again – in the next hour, next day, next week, next month & until your child can recite the points from memory!

The Best Gun for Home Defense

shot gun for home defensePurchasing a gun for home defense is becoming a more common occurrence. In the past, hand guns appeared to be the gun of choice for this purpose. There were some good reasons for this. The cost of hand guns was lower, they are portable and could be easily transported and they are easy to handle. However, they have one major flaw. In a confrontation, they are not as effective in deterring a potential criminal as other weapons. Well-trained police officers have been measured to be able to hit their target only 30% of the time in a static, non-threatening situation. When confronted by a criminal who also has a weapon, their accuracy erodes to only 18%! If you have the same level of training as a police officer, then in a similar situation you have a 1 in 5 chance of hitting your target. Without that training level, it’s even less.

Most professionals will say that the best weapon for home defense is a shot gun. Its mere appearance is often enough to disarm a criminal. If forced to fire, its effectiveness is significantly better than a hand gun. Lastly, new configurations are providing more portability and ease of handling. If you’re considering a weapon for home defense, give this some thought.
