We are licensed firearm owners in India, which means we understand the responsibility that comes with owning a firearm.
We all have full-time jobs, and our efforts to educate on gun safety, proper weapon handling, & Indian firearm laws come purely from our passion for firearms.
As a wise man once said…
“The right to own a gun comes with the responsibility to use it wisely, safely, and legally.”
Gun Safety & Weapon Handling
The illustrations shared here are for basic educational purposes only. They do not cover all safety procedures, legal obligations, or real-world handling requirements. Always follow official laws, certified training, and manufacturer guidelines.
Gun safety is about responsibility, awareness, and discipline.
Firearm is a tool. Safe in trained hands and dangerous when handled carelessly. Under Indian law, firearm ownership is a regulated privilege, and every licence holder is personally responsible for safe handling, secure storage, and lawful use.
This responsibility extends beyond the range or field and into everyday conduct: knowing the condition of your firearm at all times, transporting it discreetly, preventing unauthorized access, and using it strictly within the bounds of the Arms Act and Arms Rules. True gun safety isn’t just about avoiding accidents—it’s about upholding public trust, protecting lives, and demonstrating that licensed owners are capable, informed, and disciplined custodians of their firearms.
Safe gun handling (often called firearm safety or weapons handling) is the foundation of responsible ownership and use.
Whether you're a beginner or experienced, these principles prevent accidents and save lives.
At its core, safe handling is about mindset and consistency treating every firearm as if it’s loaded, maintaining proper muzzle discipline, keeping your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot, and being absolutely certain of your target and what lies beyond it.
These habits reduce human error, which is the leading cause of firearm accidents, and ensure that firearms remain tools used with control, respect, and accountability rather than sources of unintended harm.
