An AR-15 designed for children shocks even the most jaded gun-control advocates

42. There's one feature on this gun that I really like

On the left side of an AR-series rifle or an M16/M4/M27 is the safety switch. You use your thumb to switch between the various modes. The lever is on one end of an axle which passes all the way through the lower receiver.

On THIS gun, there's a knob on the right side of the safety switch axle. It takes more force to turn it than a kid can generate, and it's big enough around that a kid can't use pliers to turn it. If the parent turns this knob to the "lock" position, the safety lever won't move and Junior can't go out shooting targets, tin cans, rats, stray dogs, the neighborhood bully or anything else.
