STEVE-O Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 Looking for any BB gun for a kid, would love to find a rifle with scope but would consider others. Thought I would see if anyone here has something before buying new Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Nice Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 Here's a rifle and scope. Depending on his skill level and accuracy of the rifle maybe upgrade to this reticle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otis Nice Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 Bwahahahaha a $1500 BBgun I have this for sale: http://www.savagearms.com/firearms/model/rascal $100 KillJoy I believe those BB's are higher velocity than what he's looking for. My personal opinion (which may be valuable, may be worth shit, depending on who you ask) is thus: Go to Wally World. Get a $20 BB gun that comes with a few hundred BB's. If little person shows responsibility go with a single shot .22 like Steve linked. Scope that. A scope on a BB gun is like putting....a...a scope on...on something stupid. BB's are round. They change direction. My boy is 3 and already knows the difference between his bubble gun and a real firearm. We recently had fam pics taken with the '49 Chevy we got from up north. I let him hold .22 revolver, unloaded (of course) and checked by literally 5 people who handle firearms regularly, and not once did he act irresponsible. Not saying I'd load it and hand it to my 3 y.o. EVER nor would I let him have access to any firearms EVER, but at 8 kids are smart enough to know the difference. My nephews were 8 and 9 when we took them squirrel hunting last year. Once carried a single shot .22 and the other a .410. No issues. I walked with both of them at different times. VERY responsible. They grew up on a Marine base and learned early not to mess with firearms. Their dad took them hunting SUPER young. They never got a firearm. Just went with. They learned first hand that firearms can and will kill. Education. Use it. Discernment. Use it. Wally World BB gun until you KNOW and are comfortable with YOUR kid and firearms. Eff what anyone else thinks or believes. That's just me though. I'm sure others have different views or think otherwise or whatnot. That's ok too.

STEVE-O Posted September 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 He has shot a few and after showing responsibility I have decided he can have his own and yes I know the scope is useless he just thinks it's cool and gives him something else to "aim" with , he just likes to shoot paper and random trees in the yard and is happy. He thinks he is the coolest when I let him look down the scopes of the savage bolt actions we have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll ask around my fam and friends and see if anything is laying around. I MIGHT actually have a BB gun with scope lying around. I can't remember if my wife sold it in a yard sale or not. If she hasn't, you can have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geeto67 Posted September 17, 2017 Report Share Posted September 17, 2017 I have a BB gun with scope that I took away from some neighbor kids who were trying to shoot their eyes out (srsly they were trying to shoot each other with it). It dry fires fine but I can't seem to get it to load a pellet in the chamber. You can have it if you think you can fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geeto67 Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 So you stole from kids? Yeah, wanna make something of it? I tried to give the gun to their parents but they didn't know where it came from and didn't want it. At that point it was put it in the trash or put it in the garage, till I get around to seeing what's wrong with it. It could be something as dumb as dirt in the loading mechanism or that the seals are dried out I just haven't checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
