A very sad situation.
I belonged to a gun club for many years and for the most part all the members strictly followed the rules with regards to gun safety. I do however recall a few times when the folks got a little lacks or failed to use common sense and near accidents occured.
The most common situations were guys displaying their loaded guns proudly, and letting an in experienced person hold and check out the firearm, on a few occasions the guns went off...luckily nobody got shot.
Guns are not very forgiving, so judgement is key to preventing accidents.
In this case the boy was too young to play with an automatic weapon. The gun club guy and the father were pretty stupid.
Very Sad, Bill
