When I was 10, I would ride my motorcycle down the street, my .22 slung over my shoulder, and a thousand rounds in my bag - in Masachusetts.

Damn, i miss the good old days.

Hi Fierce Allegiance-

How did you ride a motorcycle at ten years of age? You were either gigantic or the motorcycle was tiny....more like a minibike than a true motorcycle.

When my brother was around 14 he was shooting BBs at birds up on the phone line. A neighbor girl was playing down the street at the time. One of the BBs hit the phone line and and came down and hit the girl's eyelid! Just a freak thing. Her parents didn't sue..they didn't have my brother arrested...and they didn't ban BB guns. I too miss the good ole days. (My brother did have to apologize though, something else that has gone by the wayside.)

Same here, but in California. I had my first 22 when I was 6. I'm 50 now and still have it, and it functions like the day I bought it with money saved from mowing lawns and doing other odd jobs. Nevertheless, my 4yr (yeah I'm a 50 yr old with a 4yr old) can shoot his BB gun quite well. He'll be 5 in February, and ready to learn on Daddy's old 22.
