To: Yo-Yo

Around a dozen years ago or so, a father, an MD iirc, took his son, maybe 12yo, to a live-fire gun show where one could fire automatic weapons.

The kid, Jewish name I think, was indulged, and so not so surprisingly, chose the Uzi.

I understand the Uzi tends to pull to one side and up, at least according to Hollywood, and the poor kid managed to shoot himself in the head, dead, while firing it.

In 2014, a 9 year old girl firing an Uzi for the first time at an Arizona tourist gun range accidently shot and killed her instructor when she lost control of the weapon.

Micro-Uzi, as I recall.
