WOAH far too close to home

before you hand anyone a weapon you always make sure it is unloaded and clear it showing them the empty barrell before handing it over,

when you are handing a weapon to another person it is not in a stable postion point down the range and therefore you are in danger of hitting someone if you were to ND

i joined as a junior leader which meant basic for a year we didnt fire a weopon once in the first term (4 months) instead we learnt how to handle the weapon, load the weapon, unload the weapon , strip the weapon , all of this we could do with a blindfold on before we went anywhere near a range

Thanks for that

no1, I uncock it and load it then hand it to him to aim and fire

wrong

the first thing you need to learn before firing is how to handle, load , unload and make safe the weapon. NEVER EVER hand a loaded weopon over to another person
you know how long it was between me joining the army at 16 and living breathing the army every day and me firing a weapon?

Unbelievable.

I rest my case.

I'm not against teaching a 14YO how to handle a gun responsibly but whilst you don't know the basics about handling guns you really aren't in a position to supervise your son, mate. You just don't have the knowledge required to do so.
Unless you send him to someone that can teach him these things I would do a lot more reading up and practising yourself before I'd let him near a loaded weapon of any sort. You should be a lot more familiar with these things when supervising someone else.

It's like giving someone a car and letting them drive it when you yourself have no real experience driving one. The fact that's it's a small car doesn't make any difference, you just wouldn't do it.
