Brad Pitt has revealed that he was given his first gun when the actor was in kindergarten.
The Academy Award winner asserted that there was a "rite of passage" where he grew up of inheriting one ancestor's weapons like his brother got his dad's gun and the actor got his grandfather's shotgun, the Independent reported.
The 50-year-old actor continued that the positive thing was that actor's father instilled in him a profound and deep respect for the weapon.
Pitt received a shotgun when he was 6-years-old and he had fired a handgun by the time he was 8-years-old.
