Home Gun Safety

Homegunsafety provides NRA-certified instruction on firearm safety, handling, and responsible ownership. Founded and run by Mike Burchman in Hopkinton, MA, the operation focuses on foundational safety education rather than high-volume retail.

• •Basic firearm operation and safety rules
• •Proper storage methods for homes with kids
• •Self-defense fundamentals and legal considerations
• •Courses for kids and parents with age-appropriate instruction
• •Massachusetts-specific licensing guidance

Beyond classroom instruction, Homegunsafety maintains an articles section covering questions that frequently come up during classes:

• •How firearms operate mechanically
• •Choosing appropriate pistols for self-defense
• •Home practice drills and dry-fire training
• •Safe storage solutions
• •Legal aftermath of self-defense situations

They also curate videos and articles on Second Amendment rights, self-defense law (including commentary from criminal defense attorney Lisa J. Steele), and real-world scenarios.

• •First-time gun owners
• •Parents wanting to teach kids firearm safety
• •Anyone pursuing a Massachusetts firearms license
• •Those seeking foundational self-defense knowledge
• •Shooters looking to refresh safety practices

Massachusetts has strict licensing requirements and storage laws. Proper instruction upfront prevents legal problems and accidents. Homegunsafety bridges the gap between curiosity about firearms and responsible ownership.
