Important parameters when choosing a children’s air rifle

• Weight – remember that a heavy gun is difficult to handle. To some extent, a support bipod or a shooting rest bag can be a solution.
• Length – length is an important factor for comfortable handling of the gun.
• Air rifle mechanism – PCP and CO2 lead the way, but some of the less powerful break‑barrel air rifles are also a good starting point for beginners.
• Loading – for example, CO2 air rifles require minimal effort to cock and most of them are equipped with a magazine, whereas cocking a powerful break‑barrel air rifle can be a problem for youngsters.
• Iron sights versus optics – open sights are the basics that every beginner should be able to master with a bit of practice. More advanced shooters can consider an air rifle with optics.

Safety first

The term children’s air rifle can be misleading in itself. An air rifle is first and foremost a weapon, admittedly freely available from the age of 18, but still a weapon. It can cause damage or injury. Always keep an eye on your children when they are shooting and make sure all safety rules are followed and that proper shooting habits are developed.
