Some of the guns listed are good options, luckily air gunning has really taken off recently and there are more choices than ever for our kids. Here's my 8 year old Cooper with his Brocock Bantam Hi Lite in .22 and my 10 year old son Alex with his FX Streamline in .25. Alex was also shooting my FX Crown. Buying my kids quality guns has made it easier on them, more fun and helps keep them enthused and wanting to shoot whenever we can! Stoti
