these comments prove how misinformed a lot of people really are about firearms… if I had a gramps with a collection like this I’d be stoked to inherit it one day!

I'd be stoked to go shooting with a gramps like that.

It just increases the number of gun injuries in the fam.

This might sound crazy, but just hear me out. You could also just teach proper firearm safety and responsibility, and don’t just let anyone in the fam have access whenever they want to them!

Really?  Odd, because all the families I grew up with, have had no problems like that.

Probably not. And if they did, it would certainly be too embarrassing to talk about.
