This can result in injury, as well as a missed shot. Many gun owners accept these inadvertent motions as an inherent part of using guns. However, whether you are competing in target shooting or hunting for sport, you will want to do anything you can to reduce your chances of missing.

The gun is up there with the wheel and the alphabet as an invention that has had an incalculable impact on the world. We cannot imagine a world in which they never existed.

Here is a condensed history of the firearm, with an emphasis on rifles and shotguns.

Experienced gun owners know that not all rifle stock systems are created equal. Simply picking one at random may leave you dissatisfied. You need to consider the materials it is made from, the weight of the gun, the length of pull, the other parts you will use, and many other factors.
