Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

With Christmas only days away, and shopping malls packed, many Americans are scrambling for last minute gift ideas for kids, especially those older children, nephews, and nieces on your list. Here’s one idea:
Give the gift of freedom and responsibility – a gun.
Most states allow teenagers to own and possess long guns, and those 18 years of age and older to own, possess, and open carry handguns . . .

Exactly what Santa is bringing my kids,
along with a promise that their dad will teach them how to use them responsibly.
Just bought my 15 year old an 11-87 in 12 ga. He’s ready.
Great idea for the free states.
In NJ, a BB gun is a firearm. Discharging a BB gun in NJ is no different in the eyes of the law than discharging a .454 Casull or a 12ga shotgun.
First Gun I got was a Red Ryder BB gun and then graduated to a 22.
Never Shot my eye out either..
First Gun I got was a Red Ryder BB gun for Christmas and then graduated to a 22 a couple Christmases later.
........Never Shot my eye out either..
Got an email from my niece. Her 13 y/o son just got his first buck; a 7 point. He is on cloud nine. That little dude is a crack shot with his 30-06.
Here too.
I want an SK-47 for Xmas with the big drum of ammo that goes up underneath.
Don’t forget to give those kids their NRA membership, too!
got a .410 single shot for Christmas at 9
Buy them a rifle and take them to an Appleseed! See my tagline.
7 year old granddaughter is getting a pink Red Ryder from Nana and Poppa. :)
I recently mentioned to my wife our two-year-old is “my kid, she’ll be outshooting most cops before she’s twelve.”
“Oh no she won’t” answers she!
“Did that sound like a question to you?” says I!
My oldest who is 14 has a savage bolt hmr .17, Rem. .22 and a Ruger air rifle. My 11 yr. old daughter loves to shoot her 22/45 when I take it out of the safe and we go to the range and my 8 yr. old has a ruger 10/22 which he enjoys shooting.
I have just taught them the rules of shooting and gun safety from the time they could talk. Nothing wrong with a nice firearm for Christmas.
Bought my son a Remington Gamemaster for this Christmas. He will Love it!
Why are these weapons unloaded? Never mind..... Obama!!!
Marlin Model 60 for me at 9 also. Still have it and it can still take out a rabbit's eye at 30 yards with el cheapo Thunderbolt ammo.
I got a Sear & Roebuck single-shot .22 cal rifle for Christmas when I was 12 years-old. I have never been unarmed since.
