Gun safety starts with finger off the trigger

Washington Post article:

I'd been so mesmerized by the kick of the gun, the flash from the barrel, ejected shell casings flying everywhere, the smell of gun smoke and the adrenaline rush from nicking that paper plate that I didn't realize my finger was still curled through the trigger guard, unaware if only for a moment that the pistol was primed for an accidental discharge.

Hi I am John D Farquhar, I have been involved with shooting, training and tactics a long time. It has become a passion not only to teach others how to preserve life, but remind them of their rights as Americans. I have added several of the Gun Rights Groups to my blog list, if you are interested in learning more. http://www.firearmsfuture.com/ I also have no intention to place ads or ask for tips.
