Don’t chamber the bullet.
When your child is like 4 or 5 take them to the shooting range and show them how danger it is. They will freak out by how louds it is. Then when they are 6 and 7 take them back to the range and show them how to safely use a gun and talk about why you have them and set up safety protocols
Then take your 2-3year old child to the range with your biggest gun and scare the shit out of them.
Age is a bit arbitrary in my example as some kids are smarter and more curious at a younger age. So if they are curious take them out put some earpeote room on them and have them stand next to you as you shoot,
Tell them
These are very very dangerous and you should never touch them and then shoot a few rounds off and repeat the danger speech.
Also there’s no reason to keep a bullet chambered and a kid that young wouldn’t have the strength to chamber a bullet so that’s an additional safe guard
I really don't think there is any possible way a 3 year old child could chamber anything from .380- up. Probably not even any chance of .22. If you are still concerned about it (always good to worry about the 0.000001% probably when it comes to lives)just keep it on you at all times if it's not locked up. Good idea to have it on you at all times anyway.
I will have to disagree. My advice is how I learned about gun safety.
Also scaring a child age 4 by shooting a loud gun does NOT create a liberal. Shooting a gun to scare them is no different than yelling at them when they touch a hot stove, does that make them a liberal? No.
It’s a silly argument. When they are young it’s important to instil fear on things they don’t understand like guns and plug ins.
Then when they are a few years older you sit down and explain why you did what you did and show them how to shoot.
There are quick opening safes, if you're so inclined.
Personally, my dad just taught us gun safety when we were like 5 or 6. You can ask to see it, but never touch it if dad isn't around. He showed us they kill so we knew the consequences. The loaded gun was a shotgun tucked behind a door against a wall. A little hard for a kid to reach and dig out.
My kid is still working on rolling over and not punching himself in the face, so I have some time to finalize my plans.
I think exposing them to guns and getting them very familiar is the most important part.
Make sure you have a good safe. $300 lock em up. If you live in an area where you need it to be readily available dont keep one in the chamber and find a high up place to put it and never let them see you get it or move it
Really young kids might as well be a sack of potatoes that shits itself and cries every 45 minutes between naps. Once they get to around 12-18 months old though they want to explore every fucking thing they can with all their senses which is why kids taste absolutely retarded shit and whatnot. What they do understand though is fear from an adult. You need to believe it though and show that emotion for them to get it. You could for example leave a unloaded gun out and the second they go for it freak the fuck out, scoop them up and kick the gun away from them. They'll instinctively know it's dangerous but they won't know why. After you calm down and get them to chill out too you then show them why boom sticks are scary by making them stand well back and firing a round off. Bonus points if you do it into something like a watermelon and after comforting them show them the watermelon pieces, point to the gun, make a boom noise with hand gestures that then point to where the watermelon was and make an exploding noise and gesture to go with it. Young kids are like niggers and need this kind of instruction but once you instill it they know it for life so show them how dangerous guns out and then when they're like 5-6yo reintroduce them to guns with a much lower powered gun and teach them how to use it properly so their fear of weapons turns into a healthy respect for them.
At a young age you NEED to scare them off from guns because they are too young to understand them. Just like you scare the shit out of kids with playing around a hot stove and plug ins.
Then when they are older and mentally more agile they will better understand guns and will always have a healthy respect of the weapon.
Fear isn’t a bad thing it’s literally how we learn

What about when your child is around 2-3 and VERY curious and mischievous?

Keep it out of reach. If you can't, unchamber the round when you set it down.

Well said.

I feel this is very bad advice.
Making your kids scared of guns is going to create anti-gunners.
I was raised familiar with them, and told we could see them if my dad is around but not allowed to touch them on our own.
We were shown they kill, but going shooting was fun.
Don't raise wussy liberal children.

OMG!!!! HA!!!
[–] Shotinthedark 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
Unloaded and high up. Until the kid is old enough to understand they are dangerous.

@clamhurt_legbeard any tips here?
[–] clamhurt_legbeard 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
Thx!

Separate ammo from gun. Keep both secured.
Teach your kids to be serious.
Don't teach your kids to access the gun or ammo (yes I know kids are curious)
...
Profit!

What do you tell the attacker while you round up your seperated and secured gun and ammo?

Valid point

I have thought of this but I'm worried about scarring my child and giving them some kind of complex.
