that looks like the perfect kid's rifle... single shot should slow em down. action looks super strong... tough enough to survive a kid.

had a Benjamin pump air rifle as a kid that went through hell and back. killed many a critter with that Benjamin, sure wish I still had that rifle.

don't over look a good pump up air rifle for your kids.
best is an old Sheridan Rocker Safety Blue/Silver streak.

Because if you can handle a break-open rifle,,,
The H&R Sportster is one sweet rifle,,,
Retails for about $125-$140.

Get the compact version for the littlest kids,,,
Change the rear stock when they get a bit bigger.

I own one of these rifles and I can attest to their inherent accuracy,,,
It easily shoots as well as my Henry Accubolt.

Inexpensive high performance is what these rifles give you,,,
And the kids I let shoot mine love ejecting the rounds back over their shoulders.

Just a thought for you to consider.

My 12 yr old and her Marlin Lil' Buckaroo. Single shot. OK trigger. Very positive safety. She is wearing ear plugs but Dad forgot the eyewear.:nono2:

10 shot, magazine fed, bolt action, around 125-150 depending on stock option, many stock options.

I own the 702 Semi-auto rifle,,,
It's been a very sweet and accurate rifle for me.

I would assume that the 802 bolt-action would be just as sweet.

They make a lot of versions from Tacti-Cool

CZ 452 Scout is IMHO the best. But the other choices such as Savage, Marlin, H&R are good. I don't have any experience with the super small Chipmunk or Cricket.

Henry also makes a youth bolt action, as I recall.
