I've known adults who for whatever reason had a hard time taming a full-sized 9mm pistol. What fuckhead would put any kid let alone his own in that position? Age 13 with a single shot .22 rifle is probably the youngest I'd take someone shooting.
I had a Mini-30 (7.62x39 semi-auto) when I was around that age.

Relive the joy of humping around a machine gun! But without the fun of full auto.

Didn't somebody else make a semi-auto version of the 240, as well? gently caress that.

e: yep, and it's $14k.

How hard would it be to make it fully automatic? Somewhat related, how soon before I see Democrat politicians feigning deep concern over this affront to public safety? You see, that is clearly an assault rifle!

This one fires from a closed bolt, so the guts are going to be very different from an actual M249. I'm sure they put plenty of thought into designing it so that it would be very difficult to make it cycle automatically, specifically for that reason.

Wait, how hard is it to get a post-sample 249 if you have the right paperwork?

IIRC even if you have the FFL/SOT and LE demo letter, FN will only sell direct to LE/government agencies, so you'd be limited buying used on the secondary market.

I think you could let a pretty little kid shoot a semi-auto .22 so long as you don't let them do it unsupervised. We left the range early one time when I was a middle schooler because some country bumpkins showed up and had their 9ish year old daughter blasting away with a revolver that was way too big for her.

I taught my kid to shoot on a .40 at about age 8 or so. I was sure as hell right there though. AR15 at 12. One of these days we'll take out the M1.

If you're an FFL with the additional SOT and a LE demo letter, your business can own one.

It might seem like this post is repeating a lot of things from the post you quoted, but that's because it is.

It really boggles the mind. I used to fairly regularly let people shoot my MGs at the range, and can't fathom why someone would think a Micro UZI is appropriate for a kid.

Small children are much better off firing crew served weapons

Yeah, the "instructor" let a small child handle a full auto Micro UZI and won a Darwin award. Micro UZIs have huge cyclic rates of fire aren't for loving around with by people who haven't been trained. An 8 year old was killed by one at another range back in 2011 too.

When I worked at a gun range we had a meeting on where to stand so you dont get shot in the face.

Mid-air collision, planes became interlocked but the contraption was still controllable with the control surfaces of the upper plane and the engines of the lower.
Successful belly landing, no fatalities.
