My 7 year old wanted to shoot Airguns with me. She was struggling with handling a rifle length of pull and eye relief and what not so I through together a 1322 with red dot on it. And what a difference! Her first 5 shot group! (Rested of course). Guess I gotta paint it pink now haha
She’s a natural!

And when she hits 17, she'll be looking at boys. What was the range on that shoot? But of course it has to be pink.

When i started shooting ( rimfire ) around the age of 10 - 11 some of my best series ever was on the very first few tries.
And this was so for all distances so 15 M and 50 M rimfire, and 200 M shooting what for little scrawny me was almost a cannon in the 7.92 mm caliber, so much so after the #1 try, next time i showed up i had padding to put on my shoulder.
That was of course with support too, standing on 15 M and lying down on 50 and 200 M
Only 1 day stand out for me, that was shooting 200 M on the lane left of the national champion, so in our 5 test shots we both made 4 X
Then he commented to me saying we was crack shots, and that messed me up so much i was barely able to keep the 20 counting shots on the rather huge paper you shoot at 200 M iron sights.

Sweet that you get to shoot with your daughter… Kids tend to grow up so quickly so savor it Poppa.

Enjoy whatever time she enjoys shooting. Get her a rifle as soon as she can shoot one. Hopefully she turns into a shooting member for life be it air, powder, or both.

Very cool! She's a great shot! Nice job putting the pieces together to accommodate her size and interest.

Very nice. Just so you know you could put a Hi-Pac tube on it for like $137 to convert to PCP

I have a forearm to match her grips on that pistola. It's hers if she wants it. I sent you a msg.
Great shooting, by the way.

Just got it in mail and put it together when I got home tonight. Took a few hours as I took my time on it. No pressure gauge and max fill is 2k psi.
Filled it with my tank and took a few dry fires, it's twice as loud as it used to be.
I need to figure out what to do for a forearm now. Anyone have ideas ????
