Took my son out to our range a couple days ago and let him fire a real weapon for the first time...

He just turned 4 in April

Told him how to line up the red dot and squeeze the trigger...out of 10 rounds..first 4 hit...thenhe got a little crazy on the trigger...lol

Way to go, reminds me when I started my boy out, now he is an avid turkey (20gauge Mossy 500) and deer (NEF 223) hunter at the age of 6, and waiting until next summer when my middle boy turns 4 to start him.

Send me you addy and I'll send you a copy of a great DVD (http://nssf.org/safety/PDF/FSEorder-rev1007.pdf) that I've used with my boys.  It makes learning firearm safety fun, my wife ordered it for her class when she was teaching.

Awesome!

Hell most kids first shots are with a .22, this kid gets to start off with a suppressed SBR! Priceless!

You can't beat that. Teach them young. Good job, sounds like good shooting too.

Hey, can I get a copy of that please?  I've got a 3 and a 4 year old that I need to start soon.

Thanks,
