Gotta love the "free" BCM hats! She handles the "recoil" well. I'm kinda surprised actually. Although it's a .22lr, in a lightweight pistol format...it still has a bit of felt recoil. Especially for a kiddo.

Awesome pics. Thanks for sharing.

Good to see you got her out again.
She is not doing to bad either, considering her size vs the firearm.
Great bunch of pics......THANKS

Green Mountain Guns had some on consignment, but I didn't look a the prices.

So, if anyone has a one they'd like to let go of, let me know. thanks!

That being said, starting them *before* they know everything, (which happens around 13 or so), is one of the best things we can do for our children. Good job!

Funny you say that my son is 14 and he knows everything there is to know about anything. The rest he will argue and debate until I want to ring his neck.... But with love.

I just started my daughter who is phasing into the know it all stage. Luckily she is very serious about doing the right thing and receptive to my teaching. Good job to the both of you. Very refreshing to see young shooters coming up.
