Default What age should a kid get a gun?

I am really having a hard time to decide whether I should buy my seven year old a BB gun. She has been hunting with me since age two. I want to introduce her to shooting as soon as possible. But, I don't want her to get a lack of respect for them because of the introduction at an early age. She knows all about not touching guns and not to play with and point guns at people. I guess my point is, I want her to love guns and understand the responsibility that comes with them. But, I don't want her to get lax around guns because she was to young to grasp it all. Any comments would be wonderful.
Also what age would be good for a .22?
