A freind brought over his 8 and 10 year old boys.They both shot 22 pistol for the frist time.

After a few rounds on paper they each shot a clay pigeon both made frist and 2nd rounds hits missed the 3rd and made the 4th hit at 25 feet.

They were thrilled.

The ten year old want to try a shotgun so I had him shoot my 20ga BSS he blew a nice hole at 10 feet in the paper pistol target. Big smile on his face.

His dad and I were shooting some clays and he wanted to. So I set one on the back stop had him shoot it . I then told him you can tell every body the first clay pigeon you shot at you hit it.

I then gave him a couple of pointers on flying targets he then shot 7 of 8 out of the air. The one he missed came off the thrower at a weird angle.

A very happy young man.

had my 8 yr old grandson out this week - shot a revolver for the 1st time - S&W 17 - after he got the hang of it the grin went from ear to ear

Along the same lines, my 5 yo Grandson got his feet wet with my Ruger Charger/Red Dot a couple days ago and did real well and the best part is he LOVES it.

It is a very good thing to get the young ones out shooting.

No better way to stop them from becoming anti's
