FROM THE TIME THE FIRST COLONISTS LANDED ON AMERICAN SHORES, FIREARMS HAVE PLAYED AN ESSENTIAL ROLE IN OUR SURVIVAL, BOTH AS A NATION AND AS INDIVIDUALS. TODAY OVER 70 MILLION AMERICANS OWN AND USE FIREARMS, AND THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ESTIMATES THAT FIREARMS ARE KEPT IN OVER HALF THE HOUSEHOLDS IN THIS COUNTRY. WITH THIS FREEDOM MUST COME RESPONSIBILITY.

AS A FIREARMS OWNER AND USER, YOU MUST TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE SAFE HANDLING AND STORAGE OF YOUR GUNS.

IF YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO ACCEPT CERTAIN BASIC RESPONSIBILITIES AND ADHERE TO IMPORTANT SAFETY RULES OF FIREARM OWNERSHIP AND STORAGE, WE URGE YOU NOT TO HUNT OR OWN A FIREARM.
