[QUOTE="BadgerMan, post: 696966, member: 21176"] A hunter's safety course is a must. I bought my son a full size 870 (he's a big kid) in 20 gage for his 13th birthday. You can't go wrong with a 20 gage, much cheaper to shoot than a 410 and less recoil (than a 12) for a beginner to contend with. Join a club and shoot lots of trap and skeet. It's a ball for the kids. Go at an off time so you don't feel pressured by the serious shooters. It's a great way to instill good safe gun handling. .22's are great for plinking but not much else. You can hunt squirrels with a .22 but why would you want to hunt squirrels anyway? :confused: Although, my 10-22 is a great tool for keeping the back yard safe from invading chipmunks. :laugh: Good rifle calibers for new shooters are the 30-30, .243, and 7.62x39. Above all else, go shooting/hunting with him. Companionship with dad (and/or mom) is what he will appreciate and remember most. [/QUOTE]
