    POME with good attention to safety, I would think that your four year old would be fine. Make it fun though as that will increase his attention span.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Fair point Rushy....

    My old man is a good stickler for the rules, and of course thats the way it has to be, though have to say - his demeanour is stiff and gruff... I can see my myself in my little brothers shoes all over when out with both at the range... I tend to then explain to, and ensure my brother knows WHY things are this way and make sure hes still involved... and stays interested..
    I ended up selling a nice Israeli 308 Mauser because he got too carried away - I was 15 and had no income.. and wanted me to buy reloading gear, proj;s etc... He couldnt see it at the time.. pity, that 308 shot wonderfully...
