So, my 12 year-old son, AJ, has become involved in shooting sports, specifically "3-Gun", where he uses a rifle, shotgun and pistol on a timed course.

The mere mention of the word can make one sit a little straighter and feel a little more defensive. But it doesn't have to. I overheard a conversation at my son's t-ball game the other day and […]
