Gun Safety Is Essential

SFWA has been dedicated to teaching the safe use, care and storage of guns for more than 2 decades; it was time to create the Handgun Safety Challenge to address individual gun models, their unique operation, and care. Plus, when you score 100%, you get the benefit of product discounts, speciality publications and awesome civilian oriented training! FREE!
Please note: SFWA does not sell any products, is not a marketing company, and created the challenge to spread the knowledge and importance of being safe with guns.
