operating arms

[inibriated]

im thinking of joining the amry and i was wondering  if there is a age requirement to operate the arms?? Do they hand you a gun at 17 or do you have to wait??

Is your name a description of your current state?

Ill add a response to not be a pure smart ass, you must be at least 16 to join the armed forces so that would be the minimum age to join and get your hands on a gun in the cf, as for actually using the guns, i assume they dont let you do that right away, i assume they give classes for proper use/ safety/ cleaning and so on of the weapons.

nope. As soon as you show up at the door we give you a gun. Sometimes lots of guns. Sometimes you don't even have to come to us. We do occasional door-to-door canvassing where we actually hand out guns to people at their own homes. It's proven to be a big seller.

okay, seriously now, you can join the Reserves at 16, the Reg Force at 17. You take some classes in firearms handling and stuff, then go to a range and shoot them. Then you spend many hours cleaning them. Then they get put away. So, yes, they hand you a gun at 17.
But, if you're interested in my idea above, write to your MP, and maybe we can start doing it. I think it'd be fun.
