Over the last week in Texas, two children have died and two others have been injured due to accidental gunfire. In most of the cases, toddlers were able to get a hold of the loaded guns inside their own homes and pull the trigger.

Geroge Clendenin is the owner and chief instructor at

in College Station and he says safety is the one thing they teach in every class.

"Every one of our courses, always starts with gun safety and we implement it throughout the entire course," said Clendenin. "Firearm storage is a 24/7 responsibility, regardless of what you use the firearm for, its your responsibility to secure that firearm."

There are some safety habits that are well-known, like making sure the safety is on until you're ready to fire, and not pointing a loaded gun at anything you don't intend to shoot. But Clendenin says the other safety measures are just as easy to remember and implement.

"We want to make sure to educate the public that its not very difficult to go through a process and create good habits," said Clendenin.

In Texas, if a gun owner allows a child to get access to a readily available firearm, under the storage law act, that person is responsible for what happens next.

That's why Clendenin suggests having a locked gun safe both inside your home and in your vehicle for your firearm and to keep the key to that safe out of plain sight. He also suggests getting a cable gun lock for your firearm.

"We really believe if people follow the rules, no one is going to get hurt," said Clendenin.

At Integrity, Clendenin teaches the fundamental NRA rules for safe gun handling, which include the following:

1. ALWAYS Keep The Gun Pointed In A Safe Direction

2. ALWAYS Keep Your Finger Off The Trigger Until Ready To Shoot

3. ALWAYS Keep The Gun Unloaded Until Ready To Use
