I believe that if you want to take on the responsibility of carrying a firearm, then you need to make the effort to learn about firearm safety and everything you can regarding handguns.
I teach class every week and the majority of my students are new to the gun world but are serious in wanting to learn all that they can with an end goal in mind of applying for a Georgia Weapons License and eventually carrying a firearm. These people I applaud and respect. On the other side, I see people who come into the range every week who are already in possession of a Georgia Weapons License and still put the bullets in their magazines backwards. It is absolutely "eye opening" the amount of Licensed Gun Carriers I see on a regular basis that really do not know what they are doing, have no formal or even informal training...(like a Dad, or a Grand Dad), and strap on a side arm every day!!
