Congratulations and welcome! Those are both solid purchases, you did well. Keep them locked up and learn to shoot! I'm sure you already know, but training can be fun. I got into steel challenge for fun but accidentally became proficient and confident with my pistol along the way.

Welcome from Lake Co. Ownership of firearms to protect your family is a noble decision that also comes with great responsibility which includes the proper knowledge of safe firearm handling and storage not only for yourself but your family. They need to be taught as well with strict adherence whenever firearms are introduced into the home.

Here is a helpful link for new firearm owners that outlines some primary rules of firearm safety.

4 Primary Rules of Firearm Safety

While you’re at the shooting range or anywhere you handle a firearm safety ALWAYS comes first. Here are the 4 Primary Rules of Firearms Safety.

www.nssf.org

As a new gun owner, you need to know all that along with the familiarity of firearm laws and what the legal justification is for the use of deadly force to try and mitigate potential legal issues. Also be aware of what steps should be taken if heaven forbid you might one day have to use a firearm for protection.

It's also a good idea to have some proper first aid medical items on hand to deal with any potential wounds and most importantly to acquire the knowledge as well to properly apply them.

I know this is a lot for new gun owners to take in but having the proper knowledge and practice in those key areas are vitally important for responsible firearm ownership when it comes to the protection of not only yourself but your loved ones as well.

That should give him plenty to do trying to figure out what all that means.

Hey there everybody. Just purchased my first guns this past week, picked up an old Mossberg 500 from a gunshow, then a Sar 9 from a gunshop here in Fort Wayne. Purchased my first house a year ago and been feeling very irresponsible not having anything to protect my family. Happy to have solved that problem. As a brand new gun owner, it was really difficult for me to find a community as the only real form of network I'm familiar with is Facebook which seems to completely disallow anything firearm related. Glad I found this forum!

Thanks. I'm a brand new gun owner so I don't have a range per se, but I'm heading to Midwest Shooting Center right now to try it out. As far as my username, no, it's nothing nearly as cool as you probably hope. I just didn't want to use my normal online username for privacy reasons. Proud owner of one of the last Chevy big block engines to come from the factory, the 8.1l that powers my 02 GMC 2500HD pickup. Thanks for the comment.
