" (KMOV)—An Imperial man is dead after accidentally shooting himself in the head while teaching his girlfriend firearm safety.

According to Sheriff Oliver Boyer, deputies responded to 4307 Rock Valley Court in Imperial, Missouri on Friday for an accidental shooting. According to the investigation, 40-years-old James Looney was teaching his girlfriend firearm safety.

According to the witness, Looney would show the different safety mechanisms, put the gun to his head, and ask if the gun would go off. Looney apparently did this with two other weapons and varied safety mechanisms, before the last one went off.

Looney was transported to an area hospital, where he was pronounced dead the next morning.

According to witnesses, Looney was going to take his girlfriend to the shooting range the next day, but insisted on firearm safety the day prior.

Authorities said alcohol was a factor.

What ever happened to the four rules of gun safety?

1. All guns are always loaded.
2. Never let your muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3. Keep your booger hook off the trigger until your sights are on the target.
4. Be sure of your target and what is beyond it.

now wait,
rule one only states that you should treat all guns as if they were always loaded.

it does not specifically state that you cant play with the guns.
