the RATS will be stroking this for all it's worth, what an idiot...
Just doesn’t sound like a good idea to let a nine year old shoot an Uzi.
Hey idjot! I have a hard time controlling a full auto weapon.
Don’t give one to a 9 year old without helping them keep it under control.
Instructor should have anticipated the climb and prepared the 9 year for it. Sad for both.
Who in their right mind would allow a 9 year old to fire a submachine gun?
Anyone that takes a casual approach and no protective enclosure when giving a 9 year old a weapon set to full automatic doesn’t understand children’s abilities, physics or firearms.
More fodder for the grabbers.
the RATS will be stroking this for all it's worth, what an idiot...An AR in full auto is pretty controllable, but you can’t hit **** with it. Flip it to semi auto and its on the money.
Fughed about an AK 47 or an AR 10.
Theonly full auto I have seen that anyone(Adults) can keep on target is the FS PS90.
He was an idiot to give somebody so young, and obviously not strong enough, a weapon set to automatic.
I believe this happened once before when somebody let a young child fire an UZI. It climbed up and shot either the kid or the instructor in the head.
How friggin stupid!
Full auto is far too hard to control...it will walk up on you.
At nine I’d say stick with a 22 single-shot rifle.
Will there be a murder charge if the girl is white and the victim is Black?
“last Stop” sounds fitting /s
I don’t think the climb is too bad on a full-auto Uzi. Not saying I’m a former Israeli commando or anything but I have a bit of experience with this weapon in the past.
I would guess that the unexpected recoil made the weapon jump around too much and she held onto the trigger tighter than anything else because it was likely her dominant hand. The gun is out of control and the guy gets too close trying to help. She may have even turned around in a panic.
Zap.
What is a nine year old doing with an Uzi?

The firearms “instructor” screwed up and paid for it with his life. Sad all the way around.
My brother and I have trained many people in to safely handle their firearm and shoot accurately.
We NEVER stand next to someone.
We stand behind them.
If we have to stop them, we tap their right shoulder and hold our hand on the bicep and tricep until they put the firearm down.
From there any instruction given is from directly behind or if they need to observe, they are instructed to take their place directly behind to observe what we are demonstrating.
The most important care in firearm ownership is safety and that goes for instructing.
