bkolfo4 Posted August 31, 2009 Report Posted August 31, 2009 I told both of my boys for their 10th birthday they could have a big party or a big gift. My oldest son got a dirt bike, and I just picked up a Ruger MKIII512 for my youngest boy who is turning 10. I know most will say 10 is young, but he has been shooting for 3 years. Knows his gun safety and shoots my Sig .357, Ruger P89 9mm, and .410 pistol whenever we get a chance to go shooting.

str86diesel Posted August 31, 2009 Report Posted August 31, 2009 Nice...i've got a couple of MK22/45's that I used to take out all the time to help me practice trigger control. They are awesome guns. James...skip the p-89. I've got an old 2 tone DC and the rugers have the sloppiest trigger known to man. They have way to much movement and play. I can post pictures if you wish.

bkolfo4 Posted September 1, 2009 Author Report Posted September 1, 2009 My dad bought my P89 for my 16th birthday, and I will be 40 next month. Shot 1000's of rounds through it, cleaned it 3 times, never had a problem. Maybe like many other things, they were better back then!

SQMonte Posted September 1, 2009 Report Posted September 1, 2009 I told both of my boys for their 10th birthday they could have a big party or a big gift.

Knows his gun safety and shoots my Sig .357, Ruger P89 9mm, and .410 pistol whenever we get a chance to go shooting. When it comes to this, age ain't nothing but a number. It all depends on the maturity of your child and his ability to handle the gun and observe the rules of gun safety. I've been taking my son shooting for about 2 years myself and he's 13 now, he's shot everything from a 22 very similar to the one you posted on up to a 1911 45 cal.

jbondox Posted September 1, 2009 Report Posted September 1, 2009 Pretty cool, wish i could trust my boys, however I just found them shooting each other with airsoft guns with no protection... They are grounded for a week. I will do more with them when they mature a bit more, I figure around 13. They still want to shoot animals (birds, rabbets, cats with the nerf guns and hell even a sling shot) I am not down with that. Further, their mom as much as I love her let them get need for speed when they were 6&7 and that kind of screwed up their values. pretty nice gifts though.

moh.vze.com Posted October 6, 2009 Report Posted October 6, 2009 I was thinking about getting a 22mm pistol for the shooting ranges. How much was this one? $300 or so?

bkolfo4 Posted October 7, 2009 Author Report Posted October 7, 2009 It was $339. They have several models from $300-500. It was this vs. the Browning Buckmark. After reading review after review, I went with the Ruger.
