New Defensive Pistol Craft ...

... monthly roundup right here. This is Jon Low's roundup of articles and video, as well as relevant commentary, on the topics of self-defense and firearms. One of the videos to which he links concerns the basics of gun safety (embedded below):

"Watch First! SAFETY RULES" (50 sec.)

Low writes concerning the video: "Invite your newbie friends to watch this, before taking them to the range. They may then ask you safety questions that you can't answer.  Shame on you. So, maybe you should view the video."

     Another comment from the author: "Trust your instincts.  Don't worry about being rude. Don't worry about anyone perceiving you as racist. The criminal is manipulating you.  Trust your instincts."

     Anyway, a lot more there, so go forth, read, and learn.
