"CHRISTOPHER HOWELL: Hi. My name is Christopher Howell. I'm speaking on behalf of Expert Village. I'm going to demonstrate on how to use a pellet, a.k.a. BB gun, on how to use it and maintain it. So I usually like to raise it, and I like to close my left eye. And I'm--I tend to favor my right eye, and I'll aim it up, and I'll aim the sights on the target. Once I have it on the target, I will proceed by either switching the safety off slowly, and then slowly placing my hands into position onto the trigger. But that's only like--that's only, only, only when you intend to use the weapon. Now, if you don't intend to use it, you don't really need to be lifting it, aiming it, or pointing at anyone. So, if you're on a range, it's-you know--a state range, something that it's legal to be at, where you know there's not going to be anyone's houses, your bullets are only going to travel so far, and if it does travel further than what you expect, it's going to go on to the woods, it'll be fine."
