๏ผ he remembers the first time his father pressed a tanto into his hands, the way his chubby fingers had curled around its saya as he pulled it from the sheath and saw a sliver of himself etched in the still waters of the silver blade.
it does not occur to him to lie. all shinobi begin weapons training young — he might expect a civilian to balk at it, but finn is not strictly what he considers a civilian. ๏ผ

In the organization I was a part of, we specialized in firearms. I'd be happy to return the favor, if I can.
[ A lot of the Orbers don't even have weapons like Finn's familiar with in their worlds, but he's not just going to presume or something. He just offers because that's what he's best with, honestly. ]
I do not require much instruction, but I would be grateful.
๏ผ there's nothing in the statement to make it seem a matter of braggadocio — just simple fact. he has always learned quickly, and had eidetic memory even before the sharingan awoke. ๏ผ
I suspect such skills may be of use on future missions. Perhaps tomorrow?
[ Oh no, he gets that. Finn didn't figure Itachi would need much instruction. Most of what he teaches about firearms is safety, and Itachi is wise enough and experienced enough to understand how to treat any weapon with respect.
Finn's sure he'll grasp it quickly once he's got the idea of how the thing works. ]
