Sparks: Having raised 5 daughters, and now experiencing 14 grandkids...I would agree with you. When I was a kid (pre GCA68) I purchased a rifle and a pistol at a gun store, with my own money, without ANY "adult" present to represent me,,,at age 16. Perfectly legal..

And surprise, surprise...I still have those weapons 50 years later, and they have never jumped out and hurt anyone.
