Safety is Priority One with Firearms

August 4, 2023 By FBN

There are four fundamental safety rules that apply to all firearms, all of the time.  Lt. Col. Jeff Cooper developed these rules to keep you and those around you safe. They are: Treat every firearm as if it’s loaded. Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction. Keep your finger off the trigger until you’re ready to fire. Know your target and what is beyond it. These rules may seem simple, yet, every day, folks violate them and sometimes, with the worst possible consequences. … [Read more...] about Safety is Priority One with Firearms

New Year’s Resolution: What If?

January 2, 2022 By FBN

Tis the season of resolutions. Some are kept, many slip by the wayside, perhaps to be repeated next year. We suggest an alternative at which you’re more likely to succeed: “What if?” None of us ever want to be in a situation where we need to take emergency actions. We make choices on a constant basis that help to prevent us from experiencing consequences we’re not prepared for.  This year, rather than resolutions, you should ask yourself several “what if” questions so that should a difficult … [Read more...] about New Year’s Resolution: What If?

July 3, 2021 By FBN

The most common question we hear from new customers has to be, “What is the right gun for me?” It makes sense that someone new to firearms is looking for a recommendation from a sales representative that will help narrow the selection from what can be a bewildering array of choices. Often, that rep will recommend something without fully understanding the intended use for the gun and the customer’s abilities. Typically, the choice is something small and light. Frequently, it’s a revolver. The … [Read more...] about What is the Right Gun For Me?

More Women Choosing to Own, Train, Carry Firearms

January 8, 2016 By FBN

Carrie Boswell grew up around guns. Her father was a Department of Public Safety officer and hunter. Unlike a lot of women, Boswell was comfortable with firearms and participated in Cowboy Mounted (horseback) Shooting competitions. But it was not until her life was threatened that she realized her single-action pistols were not going to cut it for self-defense. “It was a domestic violence situation that made me decide to take a tactical pistol class,” said the Flagstaff hair stylist. A … [Read more...] about More Women Choosing to Own, Train, Carry Firearms
