I took him back out last weekend along with the wife and oldest son. they all got to shoot and had a blast. The wife shot everything . She has never shot before so I started her on the .25 auto , then the 9 mm and then the 40 cal . She did not like the recoil on the .40 , limp wrested it a lot and jammed a few rounds, she didnt shoot it very accurately , however the LC9 9 mm she put 7 out of 7 in a 4" circle at 7 yards . I was very impressed .
My oldest boy also shot the LC9 and did very well if he took his time . My youngest 7, shot the 25 auto at 5 yards and put 4 of 5 in the 4" circle on the body target .
Needless to say the wife held ,aimed , fondled many different pistols including revolvers and picked out a pt111 millennium pro 9mm at bass pro the next day while we were there . She said it was still light enough, larger than the LC9 which she liked and felt good in her hand , but the bonus was the extra capacity of 5 more rounds . Guess she is hooked too .
And I bet I know what Santa's bringing this yr

I can't wait now till the grand children are ready.

Check into your local 4H We have very good programs for both rimfire and shotguns.

Two thumbs up pure, this is part of what makes America great. A father sharing time at the range with his children/family. Teach them gun safety and how to shoot well and often and they will be responsible with firearms and well protected.
