If you can’t be trusted with a gun you shouldn’t be in the military. No more of this “you’re an adult only when it’s convenient for us” crap.
I shot myself in the arm at age 3 with a pellet gun.
I learned to use a rifle at age 10, with full out safety training.
I learned to fix guns in machine shop at age 17.
As much as I've learned about weapons in my life, I still don't trust 93% of people with access to them.
I mean… in the military you get training and supervision. Us civies can just walk out the shop with a brand new rifle: no training, few questions asked.
Then provide training?
Requiring training and a license to own a gun? That would go to court as being unconstitutional.
Yea, my opinions of you need to be X or Y age to do A or B boils down to: "IDC, just pick one got dang number and stick to it"
