    Guns are no joke and sometimes some people take them too lightly.
    You ever been in bootcamp?
    Those who have know firmness helps get the point across.
    Clint is really a nice guy.

    only once have i seen muzzle up with firearms, it was indoors with long barreld weapons (M16) with 20-30 of them in line to pick em up from an instructor and was on their way out to range , other than that yep totally agree :P . THats the only senerio(sp) it should be done as the safest direction would be where no one is at, and should a bullet be fired and exit the building, it would have no ballistic trajectory :P and i need a spell check…

  11. Guns are pointed up …
    Guns are pointed up in movies only. Nowhere in proper firearms training do they teach muzzle up. It might look good on Miami Vice, but it’s not the proper stance in the real world. Muzzle up, just like double-wielding, belong in movies only.

  12. 1) Finger off the …
    1) Finger off the trigger until ready to fire
    2) All guns are ALWAYS LOADED in your mind
    3) NEVER point the gun at yourself or anyone else, or anything else you don’t intend to shoot
    4) Muzzle up in the air if not ready to fire
    Almost impossible to have an accident where someone or something is damaged if you follow these simple rules. Very hard to learn quickly, like anything else, it takes time.
    Like Forrest G. that’s all I have to say about that! Glen

  13. I seem to remember …
    I seem to remember an adult in that video stabilizing the firearm and fully supervising. Did you forget that part? No, u didn’t forget. You’re just talking mindless gun hating bullshit. What else is new.

  14. Gee…how do you …
    Gee…how do you feel about putting a .40 Glock, into the hands of a five year old child, whom couldn’t possibly hope to be able to shoot such a weapon, and then nearly cracking her head open with the recoil. Idiot.

  15. Yeah I agree, …
    Yeah I agree, finger off the trigger and just train to get to the trigger smoothly if you need it. Finger on the trig is asking for trouble. Anybody see that cop video where they have the perp detained and a lady cop is still pointing her pistol at the perp w/ finger on the trig? She gets startled, squeezes, and puts a round right next to his head. Bad news.
