I would go with a .410 shotgun with a cut down modified stock instead of a handgun...less kick and he won't miss as much.

Nah, get him a tendo. And a case of Dr. Pepper. And a $100 gift certficate to McDonald's. Lock him in his room so he'll become a pasty-skinned, fat, weak, and worthless child. You know, like everybody else is doing?

On the bright side, he will have THUMBS OF STEEL.

You know, in all seriousness, in a few years you CAN get him started in shooting. My daughter and I already have, starting with basic gun safety, handling skills, and a step by step education in not only the joy of shooting, but the dangers of what a firearm can do. Nothing says 'be careful' like the proverbial pumpkin display, where each firearm in the case is fired into the big orange globe representative of someone's head.

Kick myself in the butt for not getting her into something like this myself. Instead I've taught her on my Model 60, and being semi-automatic, she has to have some help locking the action back when she safes the rifle. Granted, it's not a handgun, and yeah, I'm well aware of the joke, but seriously, why not? Why not get your son started in a wonderful pastime at a young age? Why not educate your son in all aspects of firearms while he's young(older than two of course) and willing?

It's been like gold for me so far. And before too long, those days at the range will eventually become days in the field and together, father and daughter, will be able to learn and enjoy our great outdoors together.

it's like my granddad use to say when he was asked how come he thought he and 3 of his brothers came back to Perry, Oklahoma from WWII decorated: "well, every one of us already knew how to shoot guns eight different ways.....them other guys had to be taught. and they weren't no good anyway."
