So my kid is turning 10 in a couple months, and I want to get him a plinker of his own. I need something in a youth/compact size. The Crickett is already on the edge of being too small, and I want to get him something he can grow into.
What I'd like: Youth size, threaded barrel (he loves shooting suppressed), preferably a bolt action but I may entertain a semi.
I have Ruger American Rimfire that he loves shooting, so I'm considering the youth model of that. Also considered a 10/22, but I haven't seen a youth model with threaded barrel. Just wanted to see if anyone had recommendations I may have not seen yet.
Not really looking at "tactical" style stuff (ARs etc) because I want him to appreciate the fundamentals of shooting as opposed to just blasting through ammo.
Thanks!
