16 year old Shoots and Kills Intruder with Hatchet

[Dead Duck]

Kid took care of business.
One report says it was his uncle. Oh boy.

So, What would have happened if this 16 year old little boy couldn't get access to any guns in the house because they were all locked up. (like the libs want us to do right now)

Sucks for that kid... but hell, everybody has "that" relative.

I thought he killed the intruder with the hatchet? Way cooler than just shootin’ the *****? But good guy with gun is awesome too.

Ya well, I first wrote the title as - "16 year old Kills Intruder with Hatchet" - then I re-read it and thought - Doh. So I did a quick edit.
It would have been much cooler if it had happened that way.

Poor kid. I hope he can focus on the fact that his actions saved his life and not dwell too much on his uncle dying because of his own choices.

The right 16 year old should have access to the SHTF gun. The wrong ones should not ever. They should not drive either.

My daughter had access when 16. I need the back up.

To be fair, by the time she was 16, weren't you her backup?

I have seen a lot of comments here and other gun forums I frequent that no one should have access to guns but apparently the adults in the house.

They would be wrong.

I sure as hell hope he doesn't own a trench coat.

But I read it on the internet

More than a few of us around here had access as teenagers, and lived to be adults. Funny how that happens.
Hate that the kid had to go through it, but at least they were safe.

I can honestly say I did not have one of those.

Now my nieces, they might disagree.

I was just about to say, that "if you don't have one of 'those' relatives, it's probably you" lol

Access to a gun as a teen?
Hell I owned three rifles and two handguns by the age of 12.
