The one comment I will make is, I still own my first gun that was actually mine. I paid for a good chunk of it cutting grass and shovelling driveways for neighbours, picking up bottles and taking them back for refunds and pretty much anything else I could find that a 10 year old could make money at. I would have still kept the gun all these years if the gun had been gifted to me, but there is a great deal of pride in knowing I worked for it.
IF this is going to be their first owned by them gun, give some thought to them owning it 60 years from now and maybe passing it on to their kids.
