SAFETY WARNING
Handling firearms can be dangerous. It is important to always follow safety guidelines to prevent accidents and injuries. If you have never used a 50 BMG Caliber rifle before, the force and recoil is massive and must be respected.
When using a high caliber rifle, it is crucial to follow the below safety rules:
-
Always treat the rifle as if it is loaded, even if you are certain it is not.
-
Keep the rifle pointed in a safe direction at all times, whether loaded or unloaded. This means avoiding pointing the rifle at people, animals, or objects that you do not intend to shoot.
-
Keep your finger off the trigger and outside the trigger guard until you are ready to shoot.
-
Be sure of your target and what is beyond it. Make sure you have a clear and safe backstop. A 50 BMG target needs to have additional backstop protection than standard rifle calibers.
-
Wear proper eye and ear protection when shooting.
-
Store the rifle in a secure location, out of the reach of children and unauthorized users.
-
Do not modify the rifle or use it for purposes other than what it was intended for.
