brandon,you asked "why anyone would put a uzi in the hand of a nine year old." I can"t speak for anyone other than my self and my answer is because they were ready to shoot it. Ready has 2 meanings in this case,let me explain. I told my kids from day one they could touch,hold,ask questions about and shoot any gun I own as long as I was with them at the time. Naturaly they would sometimes ask about shooting one that I felt they should wait until latter. I would explain why I thought it better to wait then leave the decission to them. My son still tells about the day he chose to shoot the Remington no.9 10ga after dad advised against it. We also agreed that if they even picked one up when I wasn"t present all bets were off and they would be suspended from gun handleing. The youngest is 40 now and I think it worked out well. So one form of "ready" was when they said they were ready,the other is when I said they were ready. If I had owned a Browning M2,sooner or latter they would have shot it. I"m not reccomending everyone approch it like I have but I believe a 22 rim fire is more dangerous in the hands of uneducated and unsupervised than a 12 gauge under supervision.
