I was about 4 when I discovered dad's m12 20 guage in the closet. I went down to the shop where I had seen a box of shells and took one back up to the house. Dad woke up to me trying to put it in the shotgun. He made me go back to bed, and later took me shooting. He demonstrated the destructiveness on a full can of coke and explained why I shouldn't play with guns.
Not long after that, he took me shooting with his Remington pump 22 and I was hooked! When I was six, he bought me an Ithaca 49. I still have it. When he caught me trying to load the shotgun, he hadn't touched a gun in 15 years, but figured he'd better teach me.
