It’s unknown if demonstrating responsible handling actually keeps kids safe.

    I would suggest doing so anyway. If they come across a firearm by happenstance then they at least won’t panic and will know what to do to be safe.

      It’s maybe not imaginable, but most people here don’t ever see a gun outside a museum or in the hands of military/police.

      First time I touched a gun was in America in a shooting range.
