    Default I love my boys!!!!

    I have two sons, 9 and 6. Today at Walmart my 9 year old asks if he can buy his brother a BB gun for Christmas, I of course said yes. So he bought the basic Daisy Red Ryder with the trueglow front sight. Cashier asked if it was for him and if he thought he was old enough to have it. He proudly said it was for his younger brother and he already has one along with a real rifle. She kind of gave me a weird look.

    Then my wife informs me that the other day my mother in law asked my youngest what she should get me for Christmas. Without hesitation he says "Ammo!" Then she asks what she should buy for her other son in law, "Ammo!" Then she asks about my other son, "Ammo!" was his reply again. He then wisely states "You can never have to much ammo!"

    Brought a tear to my eye. I love my boys!!!

    Great story!

    I remember when i was young i wanted a BB gun and my parents didn't think it was a good idea. All the while my dad's gun cabinet was in my room filled with several shot guns and rifles, go figure?

    Good job and bring them to a shoot so Uncle HunterCO can show them how to go through ammo very fast.

    Makes me want to believe not all is lost and there's light at the end of the tunnel.
    Doing a fine job there, newracer, thank you.
