[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3086062, member: 7900"] This is what we have become. I bought my first rifle, a .22 bolt action, when I was pre-teen (10 to 12 years old). But, I had already proven proficiency and being safety conscious. Mom and Dad even let me walk down to the local lumber/hardware store and pick it out. Sadly, many today couldn't prove either proficiency, safety consciousness, or even a relative degree of maturity. Thus, states have found that some rights (or should I say privileges) cannot be granted until one reaches a certain age. Even then, with the propensity for people to text and drive, even if they are "adults," they don't show it. [/QUOTE]
