With that said.. does anyone have that friend who never has fired a gun but feels the need to preach safety to you and reminds you every chance they get even though you never bring a gun around them? I feel like they try to tell me how to safely use my own gun. I appreciate friendly reminders like someone double checking if I have eyes and ears, or asking if my gun is unloaded before we pack up. I guess it makes me feel like a child or a kid being told to never take candy from a stranger.

Edit: I don't tale safety for granted but this friend is overly preaching to me about it. He isn't anti gun either and I pride myself on how safe I am with firearms. I've been in the cub scouts and boy scouts and was taught gun safety at a young age. Point of this edit was hoping to avoid people thinking I'm not safe with firearms and/or don't take safety seriously.

Been there.
I responded by saying thanks, and then pointed out how I have yet to shoot myself accidentally or anyone else for that matter. Guns are always treated as if loaded. All guns are kept secured. Nothing to see here folks.
