That's why firearms should be in the hands of 19+ year olds ONLY. Why? If you can train an 11 year old girl to field strip an AR like that, just imagine what she could do if she didn't have the discipline to control herself when someone at school messes with her........
Exposing children to weapons is dangerous. Too young to be playing with weapons.
People out there who saw that video, don't be jealous or proud. The whole point of taking apart your weapon is to maintain it NOT to show off that you did a half-ass job of taking apart a weapon and not even maintain it by greasing the parts.
My vote for the most stupid, moronic post of the year! Jesus man, do you have a clue what forum you're on??? BTW, they're firearms, not "weapons." Kids are exposed to movies and television showing how not to use firearms from the time their eyes can focus.
Is it better to pretend that firearms don't exist and hide them away, making them "forbidden fruit" to be found and played with in secret, OR teach you kids safe gun handling and to reaffirm to them that all they need to do is ask if they'd like to look at or handle your firearms? It takes all the mystery away if they have to spend a couple of hours cleaning the gun they shot.
Even if you removed all guns from your own home, what is your kid going to do when they're visiting a school-friend's home? A home where there are guns and perhaps not properly stored, or "hidden" from the kids; but of course, the kids know exactly where to find them. How many kids have accidentally shot other kids, showing off using "unloaded" guns that their owners had "hidden"? Happened down here a couple of months ago.
My kids, on the other hand, would be trained to handle such a situation and would know better than to handle a strange firearm as if it were a toy. They'd remove themselves from the situation and inform an adult immediately.
If they did not, it would result in an immediate loss of their shooting privileges.
Even if your kid grew up in a bubble, just ask them how to "shoot someone?" I'll guarantee you that their arm will immediately raise to shoulder level, with their forefinger and thumb making a pistol shape and their eye squinting down the length of the barrel.
Pretending that kids don't know about guns are aren't fascinated by them won't keep them safe. Education and knowledge will. Incidentally, kids that grow up hunting and shooting, don't grow up to rob little old ladies or knock over liquor stores. Typically, they do better in school, get better grades, are better socialized, have almost no discipline problems and often go on to post-secondary education.
