First of all, it would be a real special ocassion for me to loan a gun to anyone out of my sight. After that, I'd advise that special someone that you can kill people with a gun. Do whatever you must to protect you and yours and avoid that final scenario...if at all possible. Dead is a long time and you'll have to live with what you did...or, didn't do...for a long time.MechAg94 wrote:I guess it depends on how well you know him. Ask him point blank if he can legally own a gun.
Selling it to him is a good idea. Loaning the money to buy a gun is another. Taking him shooting and giving him a good safety drill is the best idea if you are considering the first two. You should also Impress on him the idea that using a gun will kill someone and he had better be willing to do it if necessary.

Re: Question about borrowing a gun...
My old Daddy, bless his heart, was neither a learned nor a wealthy man. He did; however, instill in me certain values and mores. He believed that a man's word and credit was his bond, he also told me to never loan a gun, a car or a wife to anyone. So far, his teachings have paid off.
