[QUOTE="p238shooter, post: 2180620, member: 24583"] Great for you getting your boys involved in hunting, almost a lost art in many areas. I got my first Daisy BB gun at 7 from my dad who would never shoot it or even hold it, handed me the box for my birthday and then only instructed me how to shoot with precision. I found out many years later (close to 40) he had been a sniper in the Army, guess he had his reasons for not holding it. Got to go on my first rabbit hunt with my 19 year old cousin using a real 22 when I was age 10. Shot three in the head as planned, he was amazed. Daisy BB guns were the way many of us who lived in "civilization" learned to shoot from the start. I still have my original, 58 years later. With a little WD-40 it still does pretty well. Enjoy your kids, they will have their own lives someday with a lot of memories. I never understood how Mom thought "I should be careful, I could shoot my eye out". Must be a saying of that era. If you were in the East of Tulsa area, you could get your limit around my place. ( Limit of squirrels, or a limit of ammo you brought, which ever comes first) I gave up on getting any pecans out of my trees after 3 years of trying to thin them out. Is there really a limited squirrel season? Have to check on that someday. Have a great time. [/QUOTE]
