Plinking Pointers by Crimson Trace


(Wilsonville, OR) — The carefree days of summer are upon us, and now is a top time for gun owners to experience of America’s greatest pastimes—plinking. Plinking is generally done with a small caliber rifle or handgun and offers hours of carefree fun. Plinkers, however, can also use their concealed carry and self-defense firearms with the benefit being more use results in more firearms familiarization. Crimson Trace offers more than 225 laser sights to make any plinking experience more exciting—and safer.Before the plinking begins, Crimson Trace urges everyone to know and obey gun safety rules. The company offers diverse details on shooting firearms equipped with laser sights at www.crimsontrace.com. Plinkers will find that firearms equipped with laser sights improve sight alignment by placing a visual indicator (the red or green dot) onto the target. Laser sights provide immediate visual feedback and can help shooters determine when, and where, a firearm moves when the trigger is tripped. Plinking can then be fun—and a learning experience.

Laser sights instantly show where the firearm’s muzzle is pointed and help keep all situations safer. The projected red or green dot easily helps everyone handling a firearm recognize any possible unsafe situation—and anyone nearby can also quickly determine unsafe handling.

There is also great assistance for plinkers by the National Shooting Sports Foundation. For safety, the NSSF offers a free online Project ChildSafe video with pointers on how to talk to kids about firearms. Details are at www.projectchildsafe.org. The NSSF also offers plinkers and shooters free printable targets at: http://www.nssf.org/shooting/targets
