Safety ? Safe Gun Handling - Australian Popup |
Gun safety involves the shooter, the target, the firearm, ammunition and their carriers, and other miscellaneous issues. Accidental death by firearm misuse represented 5% of all firearm related deaths. A firearm is also used in over half the suicides in Australia. To prevent accidental shootings, keep guns locked up and away from young children. Also emphasise safety training for everyone who uses a gun. |
