I began teaching my son how to shoot when he was two, starting with the basics of a BB rifle. My theory is that kids get into trouble because of curiosity—if you don’t satisfy it, you’re asking for big problems.

I’ve always told him, if you want to use a gun, come get me. There’s nothing I like better than shooting.
