for clay shooting and teaching them about gun safety
i first fired a .410 when i was about that age. a few shots at clays, or carry it empty and be shown how to be safe.
they wouldnt be going off by themselves shooting at things without anyone with them. you have to be 16 to do that.
I am now very proficient in the use of shotguns and am very safe. I have been teaching a friend to shoot. he is 30 years old. Never fired a gun until recently and is struggling with the basic safety concepts, something that comes naturally to me as I grew up being shown what is acceptable.
