Some posters will be offended they gave a 6 year old a pistol

Times and countries are just different. When I was 6 in 1976 we were living in Mexico and I brought a pistol home that my neighbor gave me. We were allowed to roam free and I often smoked cigarettes with other kids including grass.

Times were even different in the US even. When I was 12 my uncle gave me a rifle and I would go down to the river and shoot it by myself, I bet not many do that today.

Oh I was just picking on our resident anti gun folks. Times are still like that in a lot of rural areas, but they definitely instill safety and how to properly use it before letting their 8 year olds out to terrorize squirrels and rabbits with the old .410 or .22.
