Giving the benefit of the doubt, I'd say about 10.

Never, unless he or she goes into law enforcement, the military, or another career where a gun is required to perform the job.

I'm one of those anti-gun liberals. laugh

My friend's son is 7 and he wants to get him a .22

it's not like he'll say "go outside and play with your gun". it'll stay locked up with the other guns and only come out when he takes him to shoot it under supervision

old enough to know right from wrong,
old enough to be able to use it responsibly
old enough to know its not a toy
old enough that aiming it at ppl its not funny

old enough to know that killing something for sport isnt right
and that if they are going to hunt do it for food, and anything else they can use off the animal

if they are gonna hunt they should know how to take the animal down so it doesnt suffer


they should be old enough to understand how it works,

how to be safe while using it

to make sure there isnt someone in the direction the gun is pointing

and be at least 10

I'd say at least 7. Well, 5 if it's only semi-automatic. Really it depends on the number of zombies surrounding your house...

i don't think i'd ever buy my kids a gun.

however, if the parent teaches the kid how to reponsibly use and care for a gun, with appropriate supervision and caution, i don't think 7 is too young.

i think it depends on the maturity and 'non-ditziness' of the boy (or girl)

I heard on the news that a 4 year-old shot his babysitter with a shotgun because the sitter stepped on his foot and the kid got mad. The daddy was real proud, saying the sitter stepped on his kid's foot more than once, clearly implying he had it coming.

Guns rock.
