I can't imagine letting an 8-year old fire anything on full auto, but the average parent has a whole lot less experience with automatic guns than members of this board or I do. We can say its a parenting issue, but just how intuitive is it that a short barrel subgun will rise like that?

Still shaking my head that these gun "experts" let the child shoot.

At the same time, you do have to wonder about a parent that lets the child shoot a gun like that. It's not a BB gun at the county fair.

(I also wonder about these folks that get such a charge from shooting automatic guns, ie blasting away at a berm at Knob Creek. Seems like one degree away from Airsoft to me.)
