I feel you picked a good gun to buy, plus they are USA made.
I bought my oldest grandson one about 13 years ago when he was 6 years old.
I've lost count of how many bricks of 22 ammo has been shot through that rifle, I know most of it was from my supply.
He's got a lot of enjoyment from that rifle and it's still shooting great.
