Little boy, Big gun

Well, they aren't the biggest guns Ben has- but they are pretty big compared to Mason! He will be 5 in about a week, and this past Tuesday we took him with us out back while Ben shot some.
He was very excited, but even with his earplugs in he jumped every time Ben shot. I took a couple steps back to take this picture, but he kept backing up to me (scared him a little I think).

Mason wanted to shoot, Ben was more than happy to oblige. Here he's explaining where the trigger is, that you don't touch it til you're ready to fire, how to hold on- he was all set!


BANG, *pause*, BANG BANG BANG BANG
Shooting the automatic is fun! He really got into it! Emptied the clip I think!


Mason wanted to try my kind of shooting too!
He got Ben AND his Gatorade, that was a big deal. haha


Uncle Ben! Don't know what happened to the smile, this is still Mason's handywork.


Mason wanted a real picture with the gun. "This one's heavy!"
Look at those grins!


He wanted this one too, just for show, he didn't shoot it.
He'll be big enough to use this one by himself soon.


Then he stood on the hood and we counted the ducks that flew over (luckily in groups of 2 or 4). He wanted to shoot them too, but we told him they aren't in season (and I don't think we had the right gun for duck hunting. haha)
