a DA-only or an uncocked DA/SA gun is relatively safe because the trigger pulls tend to be much longer and heavier compared to a weapon in a cocked state. I can't count the number of times I've seen movies where someone cocks a semi-auto gun and then uses the trigger as an ad hoc grip extension. As far as Hollywood's spreading of dangerous misrepresentation of firearm operation is concerned, I think it's VERY relevant to the subject of gun safety. Anecdotally, all of the ranges I've been to (FYI, this is in California) forbid things like headshots and rapid fire because too many people come to the range with 95% of their firearms experience gleaned from Hollywood films and make a mess when they find out the hard way that rapid-firing a .45 is a lot more difficult than it looks.

opinionated way (perhaps the nearby bystanders would applaud you for doing at least something right). NDs do happen, but following (or not) the rule of always pointing the weapon in the safe direction is what makes the difference between the bullet making a hole in the floor or dinging the fireplace and the same bullet penetrating several walls before striking your neighbor.

I'm Demi's step father, I just changed the term anti-inflammatory medication to immunosuppressant medication .. you are correct of course in your comments about inflammation, however it's not the common name used for these drugs. We plan to expand this section on Demi with more detail shortly. Cheers

Um, is there any reason why the extra comments about gun handling the media were cut? Sadly, Hollywood is one of the reasons why quite a few people are dangerously ignorant about firearms (i.e. people who know a lot less about firearms than they think they do). Resting your finger on the trigger of

The expanded comment about faulty handling in Hollywood productions adds no value. If Hollywood doesn't understand basic gun safety, why would we expect them to know the difference between SA/DA weapons and the different nuance in risks? And even if they did it doesn't matter ebcause no matter how

You are free to add them again... but I'd prefer if they were in another form than what what posted before. The "alternate 3 rules" were close to the orginal ones plus that they were NRA specific (i.e. not general... the NRA is not the entire world). The only rule not common was that about not
