DNP Posted March 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 That system worked great. Thanks for the ideas guys. I just had him look at the phone and snapped it. My wife didn't believe it so we checked her and myself too. Both right eyes for us. Can't wait to get him on an AR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sketch Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 So your building a new ar... Good times brother! Wish i had boys girls are a pita! This is a refreshing thread thank you for sharing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNP Posted March 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 Gonna have to build a dedicated .22 for him. Darn! The next one is about 4 years behind him....so he should be in a good spot for hand me down rifles. We were thinking a boy and a girl would have been good, but I'm pretty happy with two boys. At least we didn't drop twin girls on the second pregnancy! I wouldn't know what the hell to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planeflyer21 Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 Unless you can reload faster than he can pull a semi-auto trigger, when he moves up get him a bolt-action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, with the schit we have going on with one of the granddaughters we've been raising for the last 10 years I would have to say you are infinitely better off with two boys!

That's one of the rules. You gotta load your own gun. And if ammo prices stay up...you're gonna need a paper route too. Sorry son. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't get a gun till summer between 8th and 9th grade. Daisy BB gun at 10 and Pellet gun at 13. My oldest girl F'ed up with a paint ball gun as a freshman in high school. Every child is different, and environmental factors and location also are important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summercamp at Fire Mountain from age 10, I shot 22lr guns. The 2nd summer forward I brought my own ammo, got really good. My step dad got me a 20gauge shotgun at Coast-to-Coast Hardware store then two years later I got a Stevens bolt action in .270Rem. Always bought my own ammo. Also picked up a Ruger 6 in 22lr when I was 16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
