Why are Safety
&
Training Important?
Everyday, a child kills/harms him/herself or another person because they had access to a gun in their own home. Whatever you do as a firearm owner, GET TRAINED! GET AMP’D or go somewhere else; but, learn about your handgun(s) and embody responsible gun ownership but safely storing your handgun(s). Listen to Ms. Holly Pointe when she says, “Responsible Gun Storage is Responsible Gun Ownership.” Let’s protect the ones we love!
