All firearms are potentially dangerous and may cause great harm, personal injury or death. No person should handle any firearm unless such person has passed an accredited firearms safety course. Guns should be stored, transported and used with great care. Such care also should be used in placing guns into or removing guns from your holster. Your Frontier Gunleather Holster should only be used with the specific gun (frame and barrel size) for which it was designed. Neither your gun nor your holster should be modified in any way, because alteration may increase the chance for accidental discharge. Always use retainer strap (hammer thong) when your pistol is holstered. Fast-draw shooting with live ammunition is not recommended, and should be restricted to full-time, paid professional shooters only. Carrying any handgun with a live cartridge in the chamber immediately in front of the firing pin may cause an accidental discharge. Certain single-action revolvers should only be carried with the hammer or firing pin resting on an empty chamber. It is the user's responsibility to exercise extreme caution when handling or carrying any handgun, and to assume at all times that the gun is loaded.
