About this ebook
Owning a firearm is a big responsibility. There’s more to it than just walking into a gun shop and walking out with a gun. In addition to knowing state laws and regulations, you’ll need to have the confidence to choose the right firearm for your needs and then learn to use it safely and effectively.
An Introduction to Firearms goes beyond the basics, introducing you to the many uses of the gun, such as hunting, sporting competition, and self-defense, and includes resources for additional information on legal aspects of gun ownership, safety considerations, and gun manufacturers.
Chapters of interest include coverage on:
Where to Buy and Where to Shoot
Hunting with Your Gun
Care and Cleaning of Your Gun
Gun Cabinets, Cases, and Safes
Kids and Guns
Defensive Shooting Skills
Federal and State Gun Laws
An Introduction to Firearms is the best guide available to you to ensure you have the right gun, whether you intend to use it for big game or self-defense. It’s your right to own a firearm and your duty to use it responsibly.
