I don't have children but my dad taught me to shoot a co2 pellet gun when i was 5 and was squirrel hunting with a break action .410 at 6. I grew up spending a lot of time on the family land in the north woods. Everyone started young and it was an exciting and memorable time all kids looked forward to but also understood safety and responsibility first with a lot of demonstration and patience, attitude is everything.
