Treat every firearm as if it's loaded. Always keep the weapon’s muzzle pointed in a safe direction. Give the owner’s manual a thorough read. Know how to use your gun, how to open and close its action safely, and how to remove ammunition from the gun, as well as its magazine. Don’t rely on safety mechanisms. Mechanical safety isn’t foolproof. Learn the intricacies of the mechanical safety on your gun. Keep your firearms in good working order. Regular maintenance translates into a more reliable, safer firearm. When carried, guns develop rust even faster than when stored at home. So, clean your firearms regularly, even if they are never used. Have your gun serviced by a gunsmith regularly. A qualified technician should do everything that goes beyond basic cleaning. Don’t be tempted to disassemble and reassemble a gun without proper knowledge and skills.​

What are 3 rules that should be followed when handling a firearm in the home?

Assume a firearm is loaded until you have personally checked it. After checking it, leave the action open. Keep your finger out of the trigger guard until ready to fire. Do not point a firearm at anything you do not mean to destroy. If you are a youngster, I would add to that do not touch or handle a firearm except when with a responsible adult.

You are a convicted felon may your wife own a firearm in the home?

The answer is, it depends. In the United States, generally speaking, a felon cannot legally own or possess a firearm. If the felon has absolutely no access to the firearm, he hasn't techincally broken any law, but if there were some trouble and police came into the home and discovered the firearm, or if the firearm was discovered in some other way, the local DA might try to say the felon had access to the firearm because it was in the home. That has happened here a few times. Additionally, there may be state/local laws specifically prohibiting firearms in a home with a felon.

That's a very vague question. Having a firearm where? Home? Car? Work? Transporting it while travelling? Carrying it loaded? Besides all that, in the United States, laws vary from state to state, so there is no real way to answer the question as asked. If you will rephrase the question and be more specific, we can answer the question.

Do home owners need a permit for tanning beds or are there any special rules that have to be followed for safety reasons?

Nope, I have looked at mant websites and I have found if you buy a tanning bed for personal use, when you buy it no permits are needed. If you are using it at a business, you will need to look into that. The special rules for safety should be found in the owners manual.
