I purchased my grandson his first gun today!
Was a lot of fun searching it out, figuring out which one to get, then finding it
I settled on a Savage bolt action .22 with a wood stock and iron sights.
And this is cool: While I was looking at it down at Buds in Lexington, I asked the salesman if he thought this would be a good first gun for a boy. He smiled and said, "Well my poppy bought me my first gun, and it was this exact model."
Poppy is the name all my grandkids call me!
Talk about a sign
The boy gets it on Christmas day
And I am setting up a small range next to his house and I will teach him all about shooting, so this is more about the experience.
It is rare atmosphere being able to sow into someone's life in this way, what a privilege!
