so that's my question. My question is about my grandson. Now I am sure all those who don't have kids will want to chime in and while i appreciate your enthusiasm I am really looking for input from fathers/mothers/grandparent who have wrestled with the same question with their own kids.
I have been teaching him gun safety and have only let him hold my pistol unloaded.
My father started me using a gun when I was 12, but never a handgun to shoot always a rifle, and his training was just handing it to me and told me not to point it at any one. He never even showed me how to load it or any safety issues.
I am looking for when others may have allowed their kids/grand-kids to shoot a pistol. I do plan on getting a 22 pistol for him to practice with but that wont be until next summer
thanks in advance
