That looks like good clean fun. Myself, I would have the youngin shooting my HK MP5 PDW. It helps to have the extra forward grip. My M4 carbine w/.22 conversion kit would be even more controllable & possibally the best choice.

My son got to shoot with very close eyes and hands of supervision a Ruger 10/22 a couple of weeks ago, I guess I have been putting it off for a while, but usually the kids that get into trouble with guns are the kids that weren't taught how to shoot and respect them for what they are.

Kathy, by age 12 I was a damn good skeet shot..... and I could shoot & strip a mini 14 better than most adults. But the video you showed does not show any skill level or common sense....so I agree with ya.

FYI at age 15 I used to take my parents boat to the Bahamas, with no gps, dead reckoning.... mini 14s were always locked and loaded.....just the way it is out there.

Looks like a great day with dad learning how to safely use a firearm!
FIREARM REFRESHER COURSE
1. An armed man is a citizen. An unarmed man is a subject.
2. A gun in the hand is better than a cop on the phone.
3. Colt The original point and click interface.
4. Gun control is not about guns;it's about control.

5. If guns are outlawed, can we use swords?

6. If guns cause crime, then pencils cause misspelled words.

7. Free men do not ask permission to bear arms.

8. If you don't know your rights, you don't have any.

9. Those who trade liberty for security have neither.

10. The United States Constitution (c)1791. All Rights Reserved.

11. What part of "shall not be infringed" do you not understand?

12. The Second Amendment is in place in case the politicians ignore the others.

13. 64,999,987 firearms owners killed no one yesterday.

14. Guns only have two enemies; rust and politicians.

15. Know guns, know peace, know safety. No guns, no peace, no safety.

16. You don't shoot to kill; you shoot to stay alive.


17. 911: Government sponsored Dial-a-Prayer.

18. Assault is a behavior, not a device.

19. Criminals love gun control; it makes their jobs safer.

20. If guns cause crime, then matches cause arson.

21. Only a government that is afraid of its citizens tries to control them.


22. You have only the rights you are willing to fight for.

23. Enforce the gun control laws we ALREADY have; don't make more.

24. When you remove the people's right to bear arms, you create slaves.

25. The American Revolution would never have happened with gun control.

Give that kid a S&W 460 Mag. Nothing better says I care when that baby goes off and everyone looks right at you.

I do own a few guns myself. And actually, a BB gun is going to be added soon. But for the time being, I own a Marlin .22, Remmington 30-06, and a Glock 9mm w/ Tactical light/laser. And a Spyder paintmarker.
