Nothing more deadly than a 10-14 year old boy with a 22 rifle. I have some pennies I put holes in tossing into the air back then. Got a 357 Desert Eagle when I started having dreams of someone breaking into my house and couldn't wake up. Couple of weeks of target practice cured the dreams.

The Desert Eagle was too big for my hand so I got an IMI Jericho. I liked it because it had 2 barrels, shot both 9mm (practice) and 45 ACP (home defence). Not too accurate though.

When I took my 14 yo nephew to raise I got at IMI 22 Mountain Eagle and an old 10 shot S&W K frame 22 revolver to teach him to shoot. The Mountain Eagle Pistol was as accurate as any rifle I've shot. The K frame S&W doubled in value while I owned it.

Ended up selling off everything except my Red Ryder BB gun. My neighborhood was getting very dangerous and I was afraid I might kill someone and regret it because of the repercussions. Spent the gun dollars on computers and R/C planes. Having steel doors you couldn't kick in and a golden retriever living in the house kept the family safe until we moved.
