I have been in contact with Alice (Catherine has taken over) at Firecracker Films in the context of Boomershoot. My family is not that good of a match because Alice Catherine wants children aged 12 and under. Does the following apply to you? This is your chance to make a difference in the British view of firearms.
Well, the Mrs. doesn’t like to shoot (yet) and my girls are way to young, but even though my oldest just turned 5 on the 11th, she’s already anxious to be able to go to the range.
The other day she drew a bunch of circles on a piece of paper and gave it to me. I asked her what it was and she said “targets! For the range!”. I then had her repeat the three things she should do if she finds a firearm (don’t touch, leave the room, find an adult). Then she helped me clean my rifle and Glock 29.
I wonder if they’d like to see someone who’s trying to get his family shooting?
Send her an email and ask.
Done. I’m kind of the “gun family in training”.
Not that I want to hurry through my children’s childhoods, but it will be nice when they’re old enough to go to the range with me. At 5 & 2, it’s just not a good age to entrust them with loaded firearms being that I can’t even entrust them with a half full glass of milk.
