He has a few semi autos and handguns to inherit but I wanted a safe single shot bolt for his first. Its a very accurate little gun. Bought him a lot of shorts to shoot out back. Kids could actually win those for selling salve back in those days.....my what a change

Very nice

Nice gun you got for your boy there.

He is a very responsible kid.....7 in march. Was shooting a handgun with my help at 2.5-3 in philippines. I try to give him many opportunities. Straight A student and class leader always. Dad demands it because its in his realm. Wish I had his brain. Actually helps work around here for his allowance. Thanks guys.

BB guns shoot your eyes out. Just had to say it.
