How do I convince my parents to let me buy an airsoft gun?

I have been wanting to get an airsoft gun for a while now and my dad is fine with it, but my mom doesn't want my brothers getting hurt and she doesn't like what they ';stand for';. I have been very responsible and my parents know that, but my mom doesn't like them. So is there anything that I can do besides for the clean your room, prove your responsible, etc.How do I convince my parents to let me buy an airsoft gun?
You have to convince your Mom that *you* are responsible enough to have an airsoft gun.





How are you going to do that?





1. Take a gun safety course. There are lots of places that offer this course -- cadets, scouts, gun clubs, shooting ranges. If you don't have money for the course, go to the gun club and tell them your problem. Tell them WHY you want to take the course -- and ask if there is any adult in the club who might be willing to ';sponsor'; you. SOMEONE WILL.





2. After the gun safety course, join a gun club or a shooting range. I was shooting .22s at a gun club when I was 13. If you can handle a .22, you can probably be trusted to own an airsoft gun. If you are starting to learn about bigger guns, probably your mom will want you to stick with an airsoft gun -- and she might even let you buy one (now that you've learned how to use them safely.)





3. To really show your Mom that you understand the danger of gun accidents, volunteer at the hospital for a couple of weeks visiting other kids who got hurt by knives, guns, motorbikes, skateboards, etc. These kids are lying in bed bored and alone -- just visit with them and talk to them. If it was you lying there, you'd be really happy for the company. This will show your mother that you are very mature -- and you understand what might happen if you are not careful with the gun.





Basically, you want to convince your mother that you are MATURE enough to have a gun.





So, behave maturely.

tell her they don't even hurt, and you're still never gonna shoot them at people because you would NEVER risk putting someone's eye out. and even if you tried you couldn't hurt anyone with them. and make sure you tell her you're mature enough that you won't get any ideas from having a gun. like if you were to buy grand theft auto, she would think you're impressionable and it would teach you bad morals. make sure that she knows you won't get any bad morals from having a gun. moms are crazy just play to her psychoses.
First of all- (dont tell them this) but your in a shell thats too protective. I'm 12. I have a .243 and i got a paintball gun for my 11th B-day. But anyways airsoft guns arent that dangerous but when your mom doesnt like what they stand for thats tough to get by. Tell her you arent likely to end up a gangster and killer just cuz you got an airsoft gun.
My brothers gone through the same thing.


Like three times.


They are a waste in my opinion.


But if they tell you no,


and you complain about it,


do you think its gonna make them want to get it for you?


No.


So dont complain,just wait until your mom sees it your way.


She will eventually.





Oh and uh p.s


dont pull that ';but all my friends have them'; crap.


No one cares what your friends have.


They have different parents with different rules
Prove to them that your not going to shoot your bros and that youre going to put them where your brthers wouldnt get to them. Also it helps you point out that youre old enough to have one. like saying mom im 15! and I have friends that are way younger than me that have airsoft guns!!
You could tell her that the pellets are sooo small they dint hurt unless up close. (which im assuming you would not do)


Or tell her that you would only use it outside while your brothers are somewhere else. Good Luck!
show them how much you want it. Also offer to buy youre brothers safety goggles or something. I think youre mom is being way to protective
Let them keep it. when you want to play with it ask them.
