Nice pics; nice thought.

But the child needs more training in trigger discipline. In the photo where he's looking at the camera, he has his finger on the trigger.

Call me stupid, lame, old fashioned, whatever.....

But am I only one there that feels this child is too young to be handling those particular weapons? :shock:

And 40, if you will edit your original post people won't keep getting the Microsoft passport.net login page popping up every time they open this subject.

No, I don't believe the child is too young.

And I don't get a passport error.

Sheriff, here's the story: My little boy has been around guns since he was born. He has helped me clean and strip my guns since he turned 3, and since then he asked me every time if I would take him to the range. My answer for an entire year had been, "I'll take you when you're older". On his 4th birthday he looked me in the eye and asked me if he was older. I said he was, so his reply was, "you said I could go with you when I was older." How can I argue? As for the weapons in question, the firearm he is shooting is a Walther P22 .22 caliber automatic. I think he can handle it. The rest of them he needed a little help with (but trust me, I had him familiarize himself with all of them). It is important totake the curiosity out of them from an early age. Since that day, my son has a better understanding of what comes out the business end of a firearm and wants no part of it. Thebest part about it is that I now havea pemanentrange partner. BTW, he loves the Kalashnikovs the best.

Great pics, but resize them so we can see the whole pic without scrolling. Would be greatly appreciated.

I think it depends on the child. My 4 year old is absolutely not ready to handle any guns whatsoever, not even a BB gun. Or maybe I'm the one that isn't ready for it...either way, it depends on the kid, and to some extent, the parent. :)
