My girls really like watching hickok45 carve pumpkins and shoot soda. I started there but I also allow them around when I'm cleaning them and to help clean and explain what each part it is when they ask. Kids get a kick out of pulling a bore snake through a barrel for some reason oldest is 5 and I can't think of a time where firearms haven't been out and about.Specifically, what age?

The bolded part. But responsibility and maturity are the most important parts for determining the correct timing.Devin brought up a good point. They need to know you are ok with them haDon’t make the firearm an “off limits” item.ndling them as long as you are around. The more exposure the better, so they are less curious about them. If you’ve got them out and your kid asks to see one, don’t ever say no. Make every moment a teachable moment. They are never too young. She started on a Cricket like my son, but preferred to shoot mine.

See bolded part. Also make sure they know what will happen if they ever touch it without your permission.being in L.E. and knowing -your kids can find it no matter where you hide it.
I used this-- I told the kids age 3 and 5 that if they wanted to touch my pistol all they had to do is ask.
then we would BOTH make sure it was unloaded.
then they could handle it .
first was a red ryder.
