7 Things You Should Do After Buying Your First Gun

About this video

Colion addresses first-time gun buyers (many purchasing firearms during pandemic uncertainty) and outlines seven essential steps he believes new owners should take after their purchase. He covers foundational safety practices, the importance of training and testing the firearm, understanding state laws, and getting involved in Second Amendment advocacy. Colion emphasizes that firearm ownership carries both responsibility and the potential for enjoyment through sport and community participation.

Key takeaways

  • Colion insists new gun owners must memorize the four rules of gun safety and actually test-fire their firearms with defensive ammunition to ensure reliability before relying on them for protection
  • He recommends seeking professional training focused on shooting under pressure, obtaining a concealed carry license even if not planning to carry immediately, and studying state-specific gun laws to avoid legal trouble
  • Colion encourages joining Second Amendment advocacy organizations and exploring the broader firearms culture (sport shooting, hunting, tactical training) beyond just home defense
