With all the bad press about kids with guns and the scaremongering that goes with it, I thought I’d write something to show just how easy it is to teach children how to enjoy airguns and stay perfectly safe while they’re doing so.

My children have always been around airguns and they know how to be safe, because they have learned these simple rules.
