You won't see me disagree with that. It goes a long way to reducing handling errors that lead to injury and death for sure. And I know that none of us kids that had been around guns and seen/heard them used would have just screwed around with one. You see a round turn a watermelon into juice, you know that it isn't a toy. Even the wallop of sound from one is enough to teach respect for what they can do.

Won't prevent idiots from being idiots, but even there, you'll get different kinds of stupidity at least.
