Miroku_Dave Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 Hi all, after a break from shooting I have decided that now my kids are older it might be a good time to get back in to the sport. Initially I want to start them off with an air rifle and see how we get on. They are both boys aged 12 and 10, can anyone recommend a decent starter rifle for them to share that wouldn't be too big? It's just target shooting in the back field that I want to do to start off with. Thanks in advance, Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ratchers Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 Being of a certain age, it seems we all grew up with BSA's. Now there is quite a few junior rifles from various makers, just google junior air rifles. In fact I have just recently seen an ad from BSA for a junior pcp, bit more expensive than a springer though. Great fun plinking cans, hope your boys enjoy it.
