RIP Col. Cooper.

And proven to be un-safe !

Really? Proven? That would be a neat trick ...

Your list, OTOH, is demonstrated to be unlearnable.

If even you, a certified range officer and instructor, must resort to charts for any hope of getting them right ...

Meanwhile, we're getting off my point, which is to be more concerned with safe behaviour than with safety equipment.

When TSHTF, safety equipment may not be (and probably will not be) available.

You fight the way you train.

Yeah, the lady in picture #3 should have been wearing safety glasses ... but some folks get more upset about that sort of thing than I think they should.

After it was statistically proved Cooper rules to be un-safe,
The NRA Training Department replaced his rules them with three rules
about twenty years ago which are easier to remember and have proven
to be be much safer.

They are :

Always keep the gun pointed in a safe direction

Always keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot

Always keep the gun unloaded until ready to use
