Unlimited Open Carry

I think in your case sounds like carrying at the farm or hunting I absolutely agree but not carrying in public I know there are a lot of responsible kids as yours , mine, and others but there are a HELL OF A LOT that aren’t mature enough to even look at one in a magazine

This can also be said about a lot of 21+ year old's today! Unfortunately.

Very vaguely worded law / statement.

Obvious from the responses, everybody read the statement in a different context.

I seen it restricting my grandkids on my land or hunting.
Others seen kids carrying in a park.
Or carrying in Walmart.

Vague on purpose or not considering wording? Or just BAD LAW!

14 year-olds carrying a gun unsupervised? No big deal. I did at 14. ... In Massachusetts, no less!

Sure, but you had to worry about the danged redcoats sneaking around.

I carried a rifle in the truck rack at 16 YO. I never shot no one with it.

i carried a rifle in my truck to school. we used to bring them into the principles office so he could look at them and tell us hunting stories.

This isn't the kind of issue the government was ever meant to get involved in. This is something that parents ought to have the common sense to regulate, and for the most part I would say they do.

I for one find it extraordinarily frustrating that this is the kind of thing people are preoccupied with, because it's simply not a problem. If we had an epidemic of five year olds having NDs in Walmart then it would be something worth talking about, but we don't. It's a solution looking for a nonexistent problem.

But the government cannot throw money at a problem to fix it unless a problem exists, so their first step is to create the problem, then fix it.

When I was16 went hunting rabbits with class mate . I was on one side of a pond he in other side .He started shooting hitting water the bullets were zinging over my head. I yelled & he quite shooting. Class mate was a town boy . Sixteen & he did not know not to shoot in the water. He later had a discharge that killed another class mate. i had a 38 special & a double barrel 12 GA. when I was 16 . I was raised in the country.

Never went hunting with this clown again. Did not hang around with him. Had I been there I might have been the one that got killed
