Peterson Construction important, Safety Council says Each year approximately 1,400 people in the United State die from firearm related accidents. In 1992, 39 children died from gunshot wounds here in Utah. Many adults purchase handguns to protect themselves and their families from intruders. Unsafe use or storage of firearms can result in harm or death of a family member, friend, neighbor or innocent bystander. The Utah Safety Council offers the following Firearm Safety Checklist to help prevent a tragic accident from happening to your family. All firearms in the home should be stored unloaded. Firearms should be kept out of sight of casual visitors and should be inaccessible to children. Carefully check to make certain a firearm is unloaded, before handling it further. All guns should be kept locked up and equipped with trigger locks. All ammunition should be locked up in a location separate from firearms, and away from sources of heat and electricity. When handling a firearm, the muzzle should always be pointed in a safe direction and horseplay should be prohibited. Children should be taught about the dangers of guns, and what to do if they come across 1 ' Remodeling Repairs and Additions 13 complaints were received, 11 dogs picked up, and 4 dog tags sold.
