I meant sad part is I'm grandpa now because mine isn't around.
I've had a great time teaching my grandson to shoot. Started him out when he was 8 with a .22 single shot bolt action. He took to that like a duck to water.
This spring I bought him a .20 ga. pump and let him start working on trap shooting. He had never shot a scatter gun before and the recoil was a surprise. Still, he shot at about 75 targets before deciding his shoulder had enough. He can't wait to get out again. Unfortunately he lives in a different state and will have to wait a few months.
He enjoys the shooting tremendously and his mother was very supportive when I said I thought it was time for me to get him into shooting and buy a few guns that are 'his'.
Yup, I agree being a grandpa ain't bad at all.
