Gun Training: The Proper way to Aim and Shoot

Last week, Lt. Anthony "Bo" Eskew demonstrated how to aim and shoot a gun during firearms safety training at the Sandy Springs Gun Club and Range.

During last week's firearms safety class, Lt. Mike Lindstrom explained the following for gun owners with a permit who go out in public:

  • It must be in a shoulder holster, waist belt holster, any other holster, hipgrip, or any other similar device.
  • It may be in a handbag, purse, attaché case, briefcase, or other closed container.
  • It may be concealed by a person’s clothing.

There are exceptions and the firearms safety class provides a great deal of additional information. To sign-up for the class email Officer Larry Jacobs at laurence.jacobs@sandyspringsga.org.
