At United Armory, we believe that firearm ownership is both a right and a responsibility. Whether you're new to the community or a seasoned enthusiast, it's important to revisit the core principles that define responsible gun ownership:

1. Know the Law.
Stay informed about local, state, and federal regulations. Laws can vary widely depending on your location—from open carry rules to magazine capacity limits. Ignorance of the law can have serious consequences.

2. Safe Storage is Essential.
Always store firearms securely, especially if children or unauthorized individuals are present. Use gun safes, lockboxes, or cable locks—and always store ammunition separately when appropriate.

3. Treat Every Gun as If It's Loaded.
This foundational rule reinforces constant awareness and caution. Even when you know a gun is unloaded, treat it with the respect a loaded firearm demands.

4. Never Point a Gun at Anything You’re Not Willing to Destroy.
Whether you're at the range, cleaning your firearm, or demonstrating for a friend, always be aware of your muzzle direction.

5. Finger Off the Trigger Until You’re Ready to Fire.
This simple habit can prevent countless accidents. Discipline here is key.

6. Train Regularly.
Owning a firearm isn’t enough—regular practice and education build muscle memory, improve safety, and boost confidence. Consider taking a refresher course or attending advanced training.

Responsible gun ownership is what helps preserve our rights, protect our communities, and ensure safety for everyone.
