My father started introducing me to guns around age 4, I never fired one until age 8. But by the time i was at age 8, i was completely competent in the safety of handling firearms. By the time i was 9, I loved to shoot my .22 and my 20 gauge. I am so thankful my parents afforded me this opportunity because now at age 19 I cant get enough. I absolutely love to shoot and try to hunt whenever i can. Being outside and living life are fantastic. Starting young allowed me to grow into maturity of use. Next step will be my concealed carry and first handgun when I turn 21. Thanks for preaching a great message nutn.

I'm 17 now, but when I was younger I was never taught or let alone introduced to firearms, with the spark of curiosity from videogames I seemed more information on them. At the age of 10 I as allowed to touch and manipulate a Russian makorav and a browning A5, right off the bat I safety checked them before further fondling. At 13 I went to a firing range for the first time, I was introduced to many platforms and gained experience from each. Now I can fields strip a almost any firearm and maintenance it well. The main reason I'm going with this is, early introduction may not happen, its up to the individual to go after it

GREAT VIDEO! My dad taught me about firearms when I was 12. I didn't even get to the range yet, before he told me to always stay down range, never fix my own jam, etc. I learned to never look down the barrel of anything(airsoft, popguns) before that too. 17 now, and I am crazy about guns. I ALWAYS treat it as loaded. I never swing the gun, it's either down range or pointed up or down. And much much more. I think that showing how to use it is safer than not knowing what to do when a issue arises

I absolutely agree. My father (who was a US ARMY MP) started teaching me when I was three, and believe it or not I actually remember the instruction, #1. because it was fun, and #2. because it has always interested me, and shooting is something I like. I feel that him teaching me "young" (on time) and involving me in hunting and target shooting has really instilled a great shooting, and safety foundation, and great values that are really helping me in life today. such as integrity for example.

"The item does not corrupt, the value system governs that." This is very true. If there is a gun present in your household, each family member should be aware and competent with the use of a firearm, this makes it a more safe household because you will not always be home and if personal defense is needed, at least your family members will be able to defend themselves and your household if you are not present to do so. Safety and responsibility, proper training and a good value system is key.

Low end estimates by hostile sources of DGUs per year is 60-100,000 per year. Some more extravagant claims reach several hundred thousand. This includes cases that are reported in surveys but never to law enforcement because they do not involve the injury of anyone involved or even a discharge of a firearm. As _The Armed Citizen_ points out, in most cases the presence of an armed, law-abiding citizen terminates the threat without any shots being fired. Compare that to around 600 fatal gun accidents per year, of which 100-200 _are_ children. I do not know, but would wager $1, that most children killed by firearms have not received even perfunctory firearms safety training.

I was raised in a house with several firearms and at least one was always loaded and all three of us kids knew where it was at.....and none of us ever messed with them. Why? Because my father never hid the guns away. We were educated on each of them. They were never made out to be a bad thing. They were just another tool for us to use. If we wanted to look at one of the firearms all we had to do was ask. We were shown how to check the firearms to see if they were loaded, how the actions worked, basically any safety or history information on that firearm. In turn, I've raised my three children along with my four step-children in a house with firearms in it. I treat them the same way my father did. I've never had any issue with the kids wanting to mess with them without asking. We answer every question they have, explain how the firearm works and the responsibilities involved. EDUCATE THEM!!!!

One of the things that the Military learned the hard way is that there is a difference between being trained in weapons safety and "Living" with a weapon. There are documented cases where trained, competent soldiers were careless with their weapons and had "unintended discharges". Part of being responsible parents is to take into consideration that kids will be kids. Teach your children well and often or find someone who can.

He was showing a .22 rifle to his friend and lent it to him thinking it was empty because he couldn't see a round in it. But it was an old gun and it was hard to really see it and it WAS loaded. Of course his dumb friend wanted to toy around with him and pointed it at him and pulled the trigger. He got shot in the forehead but miraculously survived it, after 8 months in coma.

When I was a kid I wasn't allowed to even play with toy guns or swords. Eventually, though, my folks decided to change some things. They bought my brother and I Swiss Army knives, showed us how to safely use them, and then slowly escalated from there. We got to learn how to use bullwhips and machetes, and at age 13 we got a Crosman Pumpmaster air rifle. We were taught proper procedure, and that led us into firearms use. Our mastery or dangerous things has made us more confident and capable.

A car is much more deadly than a gun, yet we let kids at them at 16 years old, sometimes without enough training or supervision. The laws condone a much higher blood alcohol level than with firearms. (NOT condoning drinking and driving). In the UK it's gotten so bad you can't even carry a simple pocket knife or purchase a kitchen knife without being an adult. Children are curious by nature, if you educate them and supervise them around firearms, and store your firearms safely, then the curiosity around firearms is worn down until the gun is just another adult only thing in the house. That's how my father educated me.

Good video with very nice points. As a "child of the gun" being raised in a house/family of military men and hunters I must say I approve. I remember getting my first pellet rifle when I was 8 but I starting firearm training since before I can even remember. I bought my first rifle at the age of 14 and started hunting shortly there after. Training and preparedness are far better for safety then trying to hide it. Hiding is good for ninjas not for safety. lol

I recently had the pleasure of arguing gun laws with my friends' liberally-inclined mother, and I found myself quoting Nutn's Concepts of Freedom almost every other sentence (with a few of my own points thrown in). For the first time ever in my life, I got someone that I consider just dreadlocks and Tevas short of a hippie to admit that maybe, just maybe, guns weren't such an evil thing. Couldn't have had such a sweet victory without The Nutnfancy Project!

I did my research and it seems to be conflicting arguments about the amount of guns in Canada. Some say 6 million some say more than the US per capita. Really? I didn't know that. My grandfather said it took him 2 years to get a permit for a handgun Question on the restrictions: I've been told from various sources that you can only have your handguns on a designated path to and from the range. If your caught with it outside of the designate "zone" it's a crime. True or false?
