Took the little men,along with the neighbor and his boys shooting today. Had a blast, and though I share.my "proud papa" video of my 8 year old ringing steel with the squirrel gun at 25 yards. Not a hard shot, but it's the first year he's able to shoot with proper form. He had a little trouble running the bolt to eject the empties, but he figured it out quick enough. He needs to work on his follow through too,you can see he almost lifts his head before.the shot even goes off. Overall though he did awesome.

Pistol shooting too...he did pretty good for his little hands. He get a good grip, just struggles a little to hold on to it and not let it flop all over. A couple of times the slide didn't go into battery completely because of the gun flopping all over, so I showed him how to tap-rack-bang, and he did it flawlessly himself automatically the next time it didn't go into battery. Talk about making a daddy proud laugh

Love it ..... I knocked up a 100 rounds of 223 today for the neighbors kids as ammo is hard to come by at the moment . The two girls and their dad can use my range whenever they want to and I live a tote under the shooting table for them with targets, staple gun front rest and rear bags etc. there for them . They are 11 and 13 and getting to be pretty good shots. The younger one got her first deer last season.
