[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 575050, member: 1514"] I almost threw up when I read the title of your post and thought to myself...oh NO...please NO! Never get BB guns. They are so dangerous. Number one they look like real guns and someone is gonna get shot by a real gun. This isnt the world of Its a Wonderful Life. The only guns my boys ever had that werent "real" guns were paintball guns and that was when they were 16-18 and they had friends of the same ages. We set up hay bales and wood pallets in a field in front of us and they all dressed up in padded suits and played army. Oh they wore helmets and goggles too. We didnt believe in play guns. Guns are used for one thing...KILLING. If your son wants to know about guns, take him to a shooting range and show him what guns do. They will be glad to show him. I guarantee he will be taken aback by the noise, the power and the kick of a gun. Its not a video game. Its not a toy. Its business. Its real. Its actually scary. Shooting a shotgun for me is hard. It leaves a bruise. Your son may be old enough to take the NRA gun course. Find out. If he is showing this type of interest he will try to shoot one of his friends guns. You do not want him to come in contact with one when he doesnt know what he is doing. Better safe than sorry. [/QUOTE]
