Throw in an education course to that. Some of the population who starts getting into shooting sports did not have the privelege of guidance by a parent or family member in the safe operation of firearms. Nothing wrong with that, just have an idea of what you're doing before taking a firearm off a shelf.

Nope, and no matter how safe you make things, it'll never be completely safe, nor should it be. That's life.
