ALL,
There are pictures of my oldest, now an 18C, in here of him pretending to shoot my M-60 while still in diapers. I have videos of him and my other two shooting it while only 4-5 years old.
When they were old enough to tell me, during the day, that they needed to go to the bathroom, they went Mule Deer hunting with me in the Davis Mountains in West Texas. We camped out @ about the 5K foot level and hunted from a Baby Blazer. They learned how to shoot a Beretta Mod 21 using CB Caps and a Browning BL-22 .22 LR Rifle. They always had hearing protection on when either of us made a shot, and saw what a Firearm did to flesh.
Both of my sons hold CHLs and carry. My daughter put her mother on notice that when she turned 18 she would make a Tandem Parachute Jump and did, but also that when she turns 21 she will get her CHL and WILL CARRY!!
The only times I ever worried about the guns that are scattered around was/is when their friends were/are in the house. I do keep a majority locked in the safe, but there are "Grabbers" stashed in hidey holes around the place.
Education and Familiarity are the safest and best way to go, with both Kids and Adults when it comes to Firearms!!
Later
Martin
