Introduction to Range Safety and Etiquette - Firearm Safety

No stupid jokes, no unnecessary intros, no loud music. Just straight to the point, excellent.

I was at the range the other day and a guy kept flagging the whole line of shooters with his gun. I went over to tell him to keep his gun down range and he replied it's not a big deal and kept doing it. After a chat with the range master he got kicked out. I'm not going to get shot by some idiot.

I'm glad people noticed that when the range officer called for clearing of firearms, the host of this video cleared his chamber before removing the magazine. This is wrong because by cycling the action without removing the magazine first, it may load another round into the chamber.  Always remove the magazine first when making a firearm safe.

I like him, he's like the Mr. Rogers of gun etiquette hehehe ... Thanks for the info. 

If you ever want to own a firearm, these are things you need to know. Being American, I hope all gun owners would know all these rules.

haha thought I heard you're homeboy say "good shit man"

Aren't you supposed to remove the magazine first, clear it, and secure the slide?

im pretty new to shooting and ive been struggling with hitting the middle of the target, but today at the range, something just clicked and by the end of the day it was like i couldnt miss. such a satisfying feeling. i cannot wait to get back

Great tips to get newcomers into shooting in a safe way. One remark though. I live in Belgium, gun laws (and safety rules) are REALLY tight here. At 4:30 the lady is holding her revolver with her right hand, and is also cocking the hammer with her right hand. Near my range that's not even allowed, because you'd supposedly lose a bit of your control on the gun when you're cocking it with the same hand that you're holding it with. On top of that, you'll shoot more accurate because the gun will move less if you use your other hand to cock the hammer. Just though I'd share what I've been told.

definitely a very informative video I'm showing it to my family members now tomorrow's our first time at range. I've dealt with firearms before but always good as a refresher for the new shooters

5:49, like LoneStarHandgun said: "The reason we take the magazine outta the handgun 1st is 2 get rid of the ability for new rounds to go into that chamber."

I’ve been watching lots of youtube videos about gun safety and this one is specifically in the shooting range, the most comprehensive one I’ve ever watched. I will take it.👍

This is a great video, and very well planned out. I had my mother watch this before we went to the range. It's great beginner's instructional content.

Very accurate and professional information for first-time shooters. I appreciate it very much.

This is a really well made video, it goes through the WHOLE process on the range, instead of just telling you and saying "now you're ready to shoot" without demonstrating anything. :)

This is the most professional and to the point video I’ve found on this topic yet. I could watch a whole series of videos from this guy. Thanks!

Most excellent and informative video for newbies like me. Thank you for providing this wonderful instructional for new shooters.

I'm sure this has been pointed out several times now, but you're supposed to drop the mag before you clear it, for you may accidently load a new round in the chamber.

I’ve looked at almost 100 of these videos and this is the first one that is actually good

Great vid. However the magazine should be removed first, then the slide locked back, not the other way around seen here.
