Showed him how dangerous a gun is.
He had a blast. Chec out his target. Shot at about 25'. Looks like I will be buying him a Cricket tomorrow.
"Showed him on paper" Way to go.I taught my grandson to shoot at an early age,also.My wife asked why I was drawing pictures.My reply-That is the way the Marines teach it.They have been known to turn out some fairly good shooters.By the way,he is 19 now and an excellent shot.
