How does it take practice to treat something with respect? All 4 of the rules I mentioned are time tested and industry standard. I was an NRA instructor for a number of years. There's a reason these 4 rules are drilled into everyone's head. Again, if you can't read, understand, and follow those 4 incredibly simple things, you're not mature enough, responsible enough, or ready to have a firearm. It's quite simple.
To make them habits? Sounds like we agree. Talking about the rules is one thing. People practicing those rules under supervision is where we get results.
As an instructor, I know damn well you had to correct people from time to time. I've done it. That means our students were practicing, getting better.
I can teach my 8 and 10-yo kids the rules, get them to regurgitate them to me. But until we get on the range, I know one of 'em is going to try to flag me. Again, practice.
LOL, that's why I don't go to a range anymore. Mine was private, only $150/yr., and no one acted foolish. But still, I want to relax and not have my head on a swivel.
