Re: Rust set shooting
Even if you never plan to handle a gun, you should know Cooper’s Rules, especially if you live in the USA. Y’all know me, I hate rules, but these I follow. Firearms are killing tools, this is how to interact with them safely:
#1: All firearms are loaded until you personally verify they are not. (Doesn’t matter if it’s the person who loves you most and they swear on all the gods that the gun they’re handing you is empty. They made a mistake and it’s loaded and ready to fire until YOU see an empty chamber.)
#2: Never aim the muzzle of a firearm at anything you are not prepared to destroy. (Just pointing a gun at someone is a form of assault.)
#3: Do not touch the trigger until you are ready to fire. (A negligent homicide still produces a funeral.)
#4: Know exactly what your target is and what is behind it for the full distance your bullets can cover. (When you squeeze that trigger, YOU are responsible for whatever happens. “I was aiming at this, I didn’t mean to hit that” will raise no one from the dead.)
Anyone who handles a firearm should know these rules and stick to them.
