We at ProShots have extensive experience in using, handling, repairing, and selling firearms, so we are used to guns. However, we also know not everyone is so familiar with them, and that visiting a gun store for the first time can be intimidating. If you want to learn to shoot, we encourage you to visit our shop. Here’s a brief guide about what to expect when visiting a gun store for the first time.
- People Carry Guns – One thing you should know before visiting a gun store is that you will likely see people carrying guns there. This might seem obvious, but it can still be a shock for people who are new to firearms. Know that our team places a paramount emphasis on safety, and we enforce responsible practices in our store.
- Handling Guns – When visiting a gun store with the intent of buying a firearm, you will likely be given the chance to handle and inspect guns for yourself. Make sure to observe the fundamentals of gun safety: always treat any gun like it’s loaded, and keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction (such as down at the ground), away from people.
- Ask the Experts – Lastly, when visiting a gun store, don’t be afraid to ask questions. Our staff are always on hand to assist you, and we are happy to provide information, recommendations, and advice. We can help you find the ideal firearm for your needs, and we can get you signed up for the right classes, so you can learn to use guns responsibly and effectively.
