I'm not sure which is stupider - grandparent giving 10 month old a gun as a gift or the parents thinking "that's ok, but we better get him a gun license".
I'm calling crazy all round on this one.  |
It's not crazy. We don't hunt in my house, but most of my friends do. Being given your first gun is a big deal for families of hunters. Grandpa wanted the honor of giving his grandson his first and it will make for a nice story for the 10 month old's grandkids someday. It's not like they're taking him to the firing range at 10 months, it even said in the article they were going to wait till he was 14 until they let him have it.
Illinois requires you to have a permit to own a firearm, junior owns a firearm, so he needs a permit. Nothing crazy about obeying the law.
