that's probably better than getting yelled for broken windows, pile of birds,dead neighbors cats, and the like.
edit. Airsoft don't break windows but a bunch of my blinds have little pinholes of light when I pull them down.

the airsoft guns are dinky and have no power... i dont see a problem with him having a decent pellet gun, as long as you are around him with it for the first few months and teach him how to properly and safely shoot....

but then again i grew up around guns; i had my first bb/pellet gun at 5yrs, and got my first shotgun (410 youth model) at 8yrs... never shot anything i wasnt supposed to, or had any accidents.... did eat alot of squirrels though:mrgreen:

Get him the OG Red Ryder BB gun, it's $30 at walmart. Your son is old enough to have one just show him to respect it, I was already shooting a 12g at age 12.

i agree. i was shooting when i was very young. all you have to do is show him that itsnot a toy although they are very fun. wallmart has little 12 dollar locks you can put on the trigger so he can not use it without you around.


\edit:I wanted to ask you about your banner thing. but your messages were full.

i agree with stranger... he's plenty old enough to have a bb gun...
if you don't atleast give him tht... its like giving a 16 yr old a remote control car.
i'm not sure if you know nething about guns... or y ur son wants a gun...
but once he gets the feel of the bb gun... move him up a 410 shotgun
its always good to know how to use a gun :blsmoke:

I think that's the most important part here. the responsibility of a gun. whatever type it is. Every kid is different. I had guns from a young age but was taught the responsibility. there are 30 year olds I know that I wouldn't give a airsoft to. I have yelled at my buddy who is in his 20's who's airsoft I spoke of earlier. Even if I know the gun is not loaded I can't stand ppl pointing em at me.

definately a good call if he has no gun experience; but if you feel he's ready in the future, a 410 is a great starter gun... then you move up to the 12ga... then the assault rifles... wait, im getting carried away here:mrgreen:

Hey man , if i had a kid id get him an airsoft gun to start, the ones that shoot the plastic bb's like u said. there not as powerful and always make sure he wears goggles while using them, u never want ny accidents, i have 3 airsoft guns but myne are all tweaked to shoot 2wice there maximum speed. i also have a revolver pelet gun which could pierce someones skin easily. I do not recomend getting him a pelet gun especially with c02 very high powered. i've lived around guns all my life the only thing u gotta do is tell him never to shoot nyone, make sure hes always at a distance from his targets and never look in the barrel....

I remember when I was given my first b-b gun, it was the same kind from the Christmas Story I believe. I had amazing times with that gun until it was taken away when my younger brother got a hold of it and shot my window to see if it would break. later on down the line, I bought high quality co2 pistols but got bored with them extremely fast. You could find your son anything from rifles, pistols or even automatic b-b or pellet guns. go online and look some up, as long as you articulate responsibility and actually spend a lot of time with your son teaching him how to properly handle and use the gun, I think you'll be good. my dad always put great emphasis on being responsible and only shooting at targets and that he'd kick my ass if I ruined anybody's property, so I never did.

been there too... but people that will put a gun to your head, most likely wont shoot you or it would've been done... i told him to "use it, or put it back in your pants"... he put it back in his pants... and tried to shoot me a week later, but got my car instead..... "cocaine's a hell of a drug":mrgreen:
