This morning Bryon had his 22 pistol out. He has been checking out new guns online to see if we should get one for Christmas. He started talking to Ethen about gun safety. He explained that you should always treat a gun as if it is loaded, keep your finger off the trigger and always watch where you are pointing the barrel. Of course Ethen was excited to play with it, and Bryon let him experiment for a few minutes in order to curb his curiosity. Bryon told me that when Rebekah went hunting with him last weekend, they were target shooting and Bryon was giving Rebekah the same discussion. Of course she is older, so he tried to let her answer questions without telling her the answer. He started out with "You should always treat a gun as if it were..." Rebekah thought for a minute and answered"..your friend?".
We laughed for a while and then Ethen showed Rebekah how to check and see if there were any bullets in the chamber. He rotated the chamber with his finger. Bryon took the gun and said "or you could do this" and rolled the chamber down his arm from the elbow to the wrist.
Watch out, here comes Wyatt Earp!!!! What a geek.
