I checked it to find a shell chambered and the safety off. All that it would take is my little guy to go pull the trigger.........not good. My 8 year old has a .22 and I have drilled gun safety into his head, but the 2 year old doesn't know any better. Living like that might be fine for them, but when my kids are around it's not going to cut it.

I missed your post as we were probably typing at the same time. Don't blame you one bit...do you have a "game plan" for apporaching her folks about it yet? If so, please share...
