I concur that their should be more "hoops" in the pre-qual phase. But I don't think one should have to pay for some of that. Definitely a violent crimes / references check first in addition to a minimum age for someone who didn't have some form of reliable education in firearm safety as a youngster or some other sort of pre-qual like military or law enforcement/security experience.

I Had my first gun at 5, But I much preferred the bow & arrow for hunting. I learned early the heavy responsibility of being a gun owner. It was used to hunt for food only and not for sport. Save the necessary target practice required to be proficient in taking down whatever we were going after. Be it Squab, Turkey, Deer...

Thank You for looking up my questions. I've more planned for the coming days, but been real busy getting the kiddos to daycare and helping out the parents as of late, not a lot of screen time unfortunately. Your more than welcome to shoot me a message if you have questions for me. Can always use more friends.
