Gun safety has always been important, but lately there have been many examples of carelessness around lethal firearms. It is estimated that over the past two years, 10 million Americans became first time gun owners. That is a lot of people that need to learn about gun safety. These novices are looking to this community for knowledge and instruction. Massad Ayoob has been training new gun owners for decades. Massad shares his process and step-by-step instruction to help you become a firearms instructor.
If you have a friend/family member with their first gun this could help them understand how to be safe and responsible.
p.s. for someone who has never fired a gun but wants to learn my preferred starting point after all the instructions Mas offers in the video is to make the live fire very very low keyed. If possible have a private range with just instructor and new shooter. Shooter is sitting down at a table with sand bag rest using a .22LR pistol or rifle with paper target a few feet away. They can't miss and can easily see success. And then go from there.
