Learning how to safely handle firearms

Whether you’re comfortable with guns or not, it’s arguably a good idea for everyone to know how to safely handle them. Today we’re talking with local firearm instructors about the entry-level classes they teach for adults and kids for self-defense, gun safety and hunting- and we’ll hear from students about what it’s like to go through them.
