Four Main Rules of Firearms Safety|  
:--------  
Before handling an airsoft gun or real firearm, remember, and remind those around you about these rules.    

* Treat all guns as if they are loaded.
* Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
* Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target.
* Be sure of your target and what is beyond it.
