You don't need to know how to properly maintain a weapon to kill someone with it. You can go on a murder and mayhem spree with a bunch of dirty rifles and pistols, and still be lethal. This isn't the point. We are not teaching kids how to shoot, we are not teaching kids how to kill. These games don't teach you how to properly aim a weapon, how to select targets, how to setup ambushes. Most don't even teach you to manage your magazines.

The proper care and maintenance of a weapon is the most benign skill we can teach, and I believe we should teach it. Yes, kids may learn how to properly strip, clean, and put back together some weapons, if we are sufficiently precise in our models. I ask you, is this such a bad skill? You may say "This will turn our kids into murderer!". You'd be wrong, of course. Teaching a kid proper weapon handling, or the tiny portion we would actually teach, makes that kid no more a murderer than teaching a kid how to sharpen a knife or how to use matches.
