    My new 3 yr old shooting buddy. Tactical tears.....

    A moment I will never forget. He's 3 and had no issues with the noise. We only shot for 15 minutes and then he started whining. He chased a few chickens around, collected some eggs, and looked around at other animals before we called it a day. We shot at potatoes, shaken soda cans...
