Only time I've really shot was when I took my gun course at MFA. I'll check them out.you should consider doing an appleseed event. you'll use a .22 rifle for this. have you shot before? I think if interested, google them and you can find a schedule somewhere near you.
Thank you, I will check out a few clubs in my area. I didn't think of a pellet gun for practice. I didn't think I could shoot in my backyard.
As noted as long as there is no town ordnance and your safe. Only pesky neighbors can be a problem.Thank you, I will check out a few clubs in my area. I didn't think of a pellet gun for practice. I didn't think I could shoot in my backyard.
To get my son going inset up a pellet gun in my basement. Few things to do for safety if you want to explore this:Thank you, I will check out a few clubs in my area. I didn't think of a pellet gun for practice. I didn't think I could shoot in my backyard.
I used the basement setup like this to teach my son gun safety.....and marksmanship. Treated it just like a regular rifle with him.....cleared it and "racked" it before going to check targets the whole 9 yards. We had fun and he learned alot. He was 9 years old when i started him on the pellet guns in the basement. He's now one of the safest handlers of fire arms I know.....and a damn good marksman.
