    We can’t here, unfortunately, but sometimes...
    Two years ago I was at the range with my very shortly lived AK47 and, once alone in the range, the range director asked me if I wanted to let my son, at the time 12, shoot a few rounds.
    He was very pleased with the discipline and perfect handling the kid showed.
    It was great also for me.
    But the best happened a few months ago, at my new range. I was shooting my beloved K98icon and my son had come just to spend a few hours together (we have almost one hour drive to and fro).
    Again alone, I asked if I could let him try and the range director said yes.
    It was one of our best days. I was feeling so unbelievably “father” that I can’t explain.
    Now my son is waiting to get to age and be my permanent shooting buddy.
    I can really imagine how you’re feeling, that’s all I wanted to say...
