“Firearms: Man’s ultimate tool, with a capacity for good and evil almost beyond comprehension, is the ultimate test of maturity and, indeed, wisdom.” – Anonymous

“From the time you pick up a firearm, you become a part of a system over which you have complete control. You are the only part of the system that can make a gun safe or unsafe.

A firearm is only an instrument. It contains no evil, no conscience, and no ability. It is strictly the intent, competence, and character of its user that decides the outcome of any and all actions taken with it.

Remember: no gun can be made accident-proof. A gun is just a machine, with no judgment of its own. It responds to your actions, whether wise or foolish.”

“The only truly effective safety device is the mind of a cautious person who never forgets that a moment’s carelessness can produce permanent tragedy.”
