Nothing wrong with teaching them young. But be responsible about it. Don't give them something they can't handle. From the time I was 8 years old I had .22 bolt action rifle that put Christmas goose on the table. My grams liked not having all the pellets from birdshot like my coudsins used to bring over. I would pop off 3 or 4 of them with head shots while they were on the ground at the riverside, and it was easy cleaning and prepping.

But huntig put a lot of food on the table in my younger days, so safe practices were strickedly taught. And from that not once in 33 years have I been around or seen a mishap while on the hunt. But to give an Uzi to a kid is stupid.
