Ever wonder if a 9 year old girl could fire a fully auto Uzi?

At what point in parenthood do you decide it’s time to take your children to a gun range to fire a machine gun?
I guess it’s a cultural thing but apart from an air pistol when I was 15 I’ve never fired a gun.

I nearly posted something like this, but I was wary of dragging up all the old arguments we used to have here about gun control. I guess the pro-gun lobby will say it was just an accident, accidents happen, etc, etc , but it’s just absolute bloody madness to encourage 9 year old kids to play with Uzi sub-machine guns in the first place.

I.M.H.O. The Instructor was an idiot. I have taught many kids of that age to shoot weapons on a Range. After going through the Safety Procedure. When the kid was about to discharge the weapon, I made sure I was standing behind that person, and with both hands just about 2 or 3 inches away from their shoulders, mainly because of the recoil. and that’s where he should have been. Sad, but you always, on a Range have to try and pre empt any situation, obviously, he didnt. Once again, the 2nd Crops up again.

Maybe a risk assessment was low on the agenda that day.

Not too clever for the instructor to be standing where he was.

She was apparently taking part in a special kids activity called, quite seriously, “Bullets & Burgers”.
Total madness.
