My 11 yr old daughter has been to the range multiple times but not my 7 yr old son. Today I took both. Took 500+ unicorn rounds "22's" , and got them firing a ruger 10/22 takedown, a mini Henry, and my Golden Boy (iron sights only).They had a blast.
Later on, I introduced both to my 5.56. They took to it very well. They landed a few bullseye at 100yrds with glass.
While driving back home, my daughter told me that she felt taller when walking to the car, and really confident. She was not sure why. I asked her, "what do you mean?". She said, I just felt really good about myself.
I almost teared up. She is an accomplished hockey player, softball player, and she has never expressed feeling that way with the sports she plays. She is a good kid, and I think she learned something about herself today. It was a really good day...still is.
