Just a thought...kids love semi-autos but a nice bolt action or lever action are better at this age to teach them a bit of fire discipline. They are also, in my mind, safer for young shooters.

I started my son on a lever action Marlin.

There are a ton of used guns on the market for nearly nothing.

Pistols? I bought a Ruger Single Six .22 used and it is every bit as enjoyable as my MKII.

Also, paper targets are great but they sell cheap spinner targets that seem to make young shooters happy.

Enjoy. Great start.
