I am a thirty year veteran police detective who has been involved in the shooting sports for the last forty years. I am an AZ POST certified police combat firearms instructor as well as an NRA certified firearms instructor. I currently am adjunct faculty at Pima Community College where Eva has been a guest speaker in one of my classes. Her obvious skill and knowledge of firearms and their use are surpassed only by her abilities as a teacher and lecturer. - Jim Williamson, Certified Fraud Specialist, Adjunct Faculty Pima Community College

The Fundamental NRA Rules for Safe Gun Handling

  1. Always keep the gun pointed in a safe direction. Whether you are shooting or simply handling a gun, never point it at yourself or others. Common sense will tell you which direction is the safest. Be mindful of the fact that a bullet can penetrate ceilings, floors, walls, windows, and doors.
  2. Always keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot. When holding a gun, rest your trigger finger outside the trigger guard alongside the gun frame. Until you are actually ready to fire, do not touch the trigger.
  3. Always keep the gun unloaded until ready to use. If you do not know how to check to see if a gun is unloaded, leave it alone and seek competent assistance.
