Bye Bye Shotgun. That is what happens when you hand a novice shooter a 12g they aren’t ready to handle yet.
This is scary on so many levels. I’ve seen people lose fingernails and skin when an overpowered firearm kicks out of their control. Don’t set up a new shooter for a Bye Bye Shotgun situation!
Whoever handed this woman a shotgun owes her a big apology, she could have been really hurt.
Guns are not toys. Guns are not props for photo shoots. They are dangerous tools. Mishandle them and people will end up hurt.
Why do I show these videos and pictures? Because I like to go to the range and every one of these videos gives the non shooting public a bad impression of the total shooting community.
Always follow the four basic rules of Gun Safety:
- Always keep firearms pointed in a safe direction.
- Treat all guns as loaded at all times.
- Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot.
- Always be sure of your target and what’s beyond it.
This is a clear violation of Rule 2.
