I had a little help today!

The farmers 10 year old grandson came out with his pump BB gun and we took turns on the pigeons. I let him shoot the PCP and he smoked a ground squirrel at 15 yds (pic) and a pigeon at 50.

I wonder what he's going to want for his birthday...

Nice Bob, I can't tell you how much shooting with my two sons has enriched my time outdoors. Teaching, watching, talking. learning and just getting a little different perspective on things... a little shooting too! I'm sure your little buddy had a blast with you shooting and learning!

I killed tons of critters with my old pumper what I was younger. It’s a great place to start.

Am I the only one appalled to see another young one afflicted by this chronic addiction.

Yep I got a couple of the farmers kids that have shot my pcp's about an half a dozen times. They were busting sparrows at 50 to 60 yards. I have just as much fun watching their excitement when they get a hit which is about two out of three times. Yesterday the farmers brother showed up and asked me if I was shooting groundhogs. He thought I had a firearm. I said no just sparrows with this air rifle which he couldn't believe it was one. After I figured out the wind I popped about 18 sparrows at the same 50 to 60 yards. He just couldn't help but laugh every time I connected. It is fun educating and introducing air rifles to people who have no idea what they can do. Bill

Bob, those kids don’t know how lucky they were to have themselves introduced to our sport by you. I envy them.

i took my PCP to our annual family reunion & my grand daughter came out while we were plinking cans at about 50 yards. she asked if she could shoot. she nailed 7 for 7 & thought that was the coolest thing. got to hang with the "guys" & shoot. its a great way to introduce young ones to the sport. she is also kind of scary good, which makes a Papa kind of proud

Thanks for passing it on, Bob! You truly are a great ambassador for our sport.

Memories, I can still remember the excitement when I shot my first springer. That kid will have good memories, too.
