Georgia asked if I would teach her how to field strip an AR.

I think I might just do that!

Is that a smirk on her face?!

And WHY did this pop into my head:

================================

My Rifle (The Creed of a United States Marine)

This is my rifle.

There are many like it, but this one is MINE.

My rifle is my best friend. It is my life.

I must master it as I must master my life.

My rifle without me is useless. Without my rifle, I am useless.

I must fire my rifle true.

I must shoot straighter than my enemy who is trying to kill me.

I must shoot him before he shoots me. I will...

My rifle and myself know that what counts in war is not the rounds we fire,

the noise of our bursts, nor the smoke we make.

We know it is the hits that count. We will hit...

My rifle is human, even as I, because it is my life.

Thus, I will learn it as a brother.

I will learn its weaknesses, its strengths, its parts, its accessories,
its sights, and its barrel.

I will ever guard it against the ravages of weather and damage.

I will keep my rifle clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready.

We will become part of each other. We will...

Before God I swear this creed.

My rifle and myself are the defenders of my country.

We are the masters of our enemy.

We are the saviors of my life.

So be it, until there is no enemy, but PEACE.

-- Maj Gen WH Rupertus

Good to see another child showing an interest and a parent that will teach them right. . . .

Way to go!

You'd better be careful; she's holding that AR like she has no intention of letting Daddy have it back. All that's missing is the stuck-out tongue and 'nyah nyah nyah'!

Good luck on getting the AR away from her. Maybe when she's asleep??

MGoduto, well she does go to a Christian pre-school and she's pretty bitter so she has a reason to cling to it.

You're missing a plug protector on that electric socket. :)

Can you imagine the hysterics that photo would cause in some circles? LOL

I was going to say, kids + guns = more PSH!

Cute pic :)
