[QUOTE="Stillhunter, post: 1179185, member: 4765"] All true of course. Col. Cooper managed to condense this into the 4 rules of which 2 must be broken at the same time for a tragedy to take place. The following is written on the door to my gunsafe. 1. All guns are always loaded. It is not enough promise to treat them as if they are. We must believe they are. 2. Never allow the muzzle to point at anything that you are unwilling to destroy. That means anything that would induce distress should a large hole suddenly appear in it. Including, not limited to parts of your own body, those of your companions, birddogs, and livestock. This does not prohibit properly executed dry fire practice. You just need to point at something that you don't need that will stop a bullet. 3. Keep your finger off the trigger until the sights are on the target and you made a concious decision to fire. 4. Know your target, as well as what is beyond, inline, and next to your target. [/QUOTE]
