Calling All Hunters -
LET’S KEEP HUNTING A SAFE SPORT
1. Never carry a loaded gun in an auto
mobile, wagon or other vehicle. Keep
it in its case until you start hunting.
2. Before shooting, look into the breech
and make sure that the barrel or
barrels are clear.
3. Keep the safety lock on until just
ready to shoot.
4. Never pull a gun through a fence.
Carry it over with you. Keep the
muzzle pointed away from yourself
and others.
5. Never lay a loaded gun down in a boat.
Never lift a gun from a boat by the
barrel.
6. Don’t set a loaded gun against a tree
or a fence or leave it lying on the
ground. Even a playful dog might
cause it to be discharged.
7. After a fall, or a climb, or after
walking over plowed ground, examine
your gun to make sure the barrels
are clear.
8. Never shoot at objects indistinctly
seen among trees or bushes; they
might be human beings.
9. Before shooting at game, make sure
that no house, barn or other building
is in the line of fire.
10. Don’t leave your gun or sheels near
