Don’t Confuse Tactical Knives with Switchblades

tactical-kniveIn this day and age, it can be difficult to determine the legality of owning certain weapons. A complex web of state and federal laws dictates what is and is not acceptable in terms of possession. As far as knives go, it’s important to note the difference between a folding knife and a switchblade. Tactical knives that fold manually are widely used on hiking trips, while hunting in the woods, and even on job sites across the country.

Switchblades operate very differently in that their blades pop out manually. Fairly or not, they are often associated with acts of violent crime. For that reason, switchblades are banned in many areas while tactical knives are not. A manually folding knife comes in handy in a number of legitimate situations, so the owner shouldn’t worry about weapons restrictions.

Storing Your Guns Safely

gunsafeThe Second Amendment is just one of the many things that combine to make America a great place to live. Our right to bear arms is one of the few privileges that separate us from the rest of the civilized world. But with every right comes a responsibility. We owe it to our children to keep guns out of reach until they have been trained to respect their power and handle them safely.

Gun safes are essential storage spots for any gun enthusiast, but that’s especially true if there are kids in the household. A gun safe should be kept out of sight – preferably somewhere in the master bedroom. It’s also important to warn children up front about the potential dangers of handling a gun without training. These and other precautions can help prevent a tragic accident.
