You are listed as a gun training counselor. Do we really need to teach people how to use their guns? Why not let people try to figure it out for themselves?

At least that is what quite a few people on this board seem to be saying.

As a NRA Certified Training Counselor,
I not only teach students
but I also train NRA Certified Instructors
in the Knowledge, Skill and Attitude in all firearms..

Knowing how to use the gun and handling it safely are two separate things.

There are only two reasons for "Negligent Discharges":

Ignorance

and

Carelessness.

Ignorance is not knowing or having not been trained in gun safety.

Carelessness is having been trained and disregarding gun safety.

Most of us have someone teach us how to drive a car safely.

Why is it that many, mostly men, can buy a gun and
genetically think they know how to use it safely.

I recommend all to take an NRA Certified Basic Pistol Course.
