As an update our 4 yr old lad accompanied us on an afternoon \evening mooch around one of the rabbit heavy perms, I shot 3 whilst he looked on and laughed at a stroppy mum who still had a full mag after a couple hours, he wanted a go on the rifle so layed him prone and explained what to do etc, whether he could see through the scope or not I'm not too sure but the hedge was a good target to not miss, but the best bit.... Both kids were eating our rabbit curry that's been in the slow cooker all day and loving it, very happy with that

Started little hunter at the age of 8 and he has come on leaps and bounds.

 

now teaching the grown ups is another thing all together.

 

kids will listen where grown ups will do what they think best

Good to see there's still people out there getting young ens into it, my lads 6 what would people recommend as a first gun for him, I've got a webley fx 2000, was thinking of getting him a nice lightweight gun for Christmas plus it's a good excuse for me to have another play with a new toy haha

My boy is 9 In a couple of weeks.and he started shooting at age 6.I was very apprehensive at first.but he took to it like a duck to water! He wants to come rabbiting with me and he's nearly ready. He has to hit a 5p 9 shots out of 10.he can hit the 1p sized spinner at 30yds.and is having a new rifle for Xmas.so by spring we'll be hunting together.I can't wait!
