No problem in states that allow "kids" to have rifles for hunting as

responsibilities as to how and when it is used and stored.

I am not sure there is any state (except maybe Hawaii) that does not
allow 15 or 16 year old kids to hunt alone.
OTOH they still have to be 18 to own a gun so there is a flaw in the
logic.



Seems to me that there are plenty of flaws in our gun laws.

In your former Maryland, they have become very strict on handguns and
"assault" type long guns. Background checks, proof of training and
permits are required to own.

Yet, no permit, license, training certificate or background check is
required to buy a shotgun or other "unregulated" long gun.

What was it again that the guy used in Maryland the other day?


Not to beat the same old dead horse but if he had more training, might
he have actually killed more people?
How does that help?
