Get him a pellet gun, bbgun, tiny 22lr.....teach him everything about each one, teach him every safety rule and be very firm with it. Expose your kids to guns as much as possible, teach them proper handling safety, and allow them to grow in thier use as they prove thier maturity and trustworthiness. My kids "cut thier teeth on a gun barel" so to speak and have been taught since young ages...they are given every opportunity to shoot totally supervised whenever they want ( often by age 3-4) and they can handle my guns supervised whenever they ask. I have a tc hot shot but any of the tiny 22s are a great choice for a young shooter. Have fun and give them realistic target options ( reactive are really fun for kids) Make firearm safety the very first and highest priority...make no exceptions.
