Alcohol, Drugs, & Firearms Do Not Mix:  Individuals under the influence of alcohol or drugs will not be allowed to participate in any shooting exercises. Even non-prescription drugs can impair the shooter's ability to safely handle or shoot a firearm.

No "Bending Over" on the Range. It presents the top of your head to fire, cuts down on your field of vision, and is a poor tactic. If you need something on the ground, step into a kneeling position, and reach for the item(s) while keeping behind all muzzles        Florida Firearm Instructors, Shooting Tips, Click Here

  Range Safety Rules  
It is everyone’s responsibility to keep himself, and everyone else, safe.   Safety must be a personal commitment by everyone at all times. Upon hearing "Cease Fire," immediately STOP whatever you are doing, remain in position, repeat the "Cease Fire" command and await further instructions.  Remember, anyone seeing a dangerous situation about to occur or occurring, and cannot correct it, yells "Cease Fire." Everyone must be highly aware and involved in the training..
 

Safety - Firearms Not In Use

 
Gun safety for situations where firearms are not in use is intended to prevent access to and subsequent discharge of a firearm.  Preventing access to firearms can serve a double purpose in that it can also protect the firearm from theft. Gun Safety Training A Gun safe or gun cabinet is commonly used to physically prevent access to a firearm. These have the primary purpose of preventing theft.
  Types Of Locks  
There are several types of locks that make it difficult to discharge a firearm. Locks are considered less effective than keeping firearms stored in a safe. Pistol Traing Safety Locks are more easily defeated than approved safes. After stealing a locked firearm, a thief can bypass the lock at their leisure.
Trigger Locks prevent motion of the trigger. However a trigger lock does not guarantee that the firearm cannot be discharged (see above). Some trigger locks are integrated into the design of the weapon, requiring no external parts besides the key.
Chamber Locks aim to block ammunition from being chambered, since most firearms typically cannot be discharged unless the ammunition is in the correct position.
Cable Locks are a popular type of chamber lock that usually threads through the breech and ejection port of repeating-action firearms. They generally prevent full cycling of the action, especially preventing a return to "battery", with the breech fully closed. In many designs of pistol and rifle, they also prevent the proper insertion of a magazine

Shooting Tips
Proper Finger Contact

Finger Contact, Tip And First Joint:

Contact with the trigger should be somewhere between the tip and the first joint.

There is NO additional leverage gained by moving the trigger finger beyond the first joint. Correct finger placement on the trigger facilitates moving the trigger without moving the sight

Trigger Pull Must be Straight to the Rear: The trigger finger must pull the trigger straight to the rear so as not to move the sights/gun sideways.


No Frame Contact
The trigger finger must not be in contact with the frame when pulling the trigger.  Any contact between the frame and the trigger finger will PUSH the gun and the sights to the left when shooting right-handed and to the right when shooting left-handed.

Maintain Trigger Contact

Between Shots: Once the trigger finger has been placed on the trigger to fire, it should never lose contact with the trigger until the required number of shots have been fired, this includes setting up for one more possible shot at the end.
