Got my first gun for my 12th Christmas. I don’t hunt, but I know to use it in case I need it. My most likely prey will be homus invasionus.
I started loaning my sons guns when they were 4 and 6 years old. I would wrap them up like they were presents but legally I was just loaning them the guns. Did that for years.
Suddenly the boys were old enough to move off on their own and they wanted take these loaners with them. I sure tried to put a stop to that nonsense but the wife supported their position. Lost almost half of my gun collection to those ingrates.
