DON'T...
Do NOT bring ammunition, food, drink or tobacco to the area where you clean
your guns! You are going to be working with materials that, if handled
carelessly, can cause irrevocable harm to you and others.
Ammunition should not be present for obvious reasons. The most obvious
reason is that you're going to be cleaning your gun, not
firing it. The not-so-obvious reason is that the solvents
can negatively affect the function of your ammunition and possibly damage
your firearm beyond repair.
Food and drink should not be present due to the toxicity of materials
with which you will come into contact in the process of cleaning. Gunpowder
residue, lead and other toxic substances are present in the contaminants you
will be removing from your firearm. Do not needlessly expose yourself to the
risk of accidental ingestion of these materials. The consequences are severe
and often irreversible.
Tobacco and open flame should not be present due to the flammable nature of
most solvents. So...NO SMOKING ALLOWED!
