    12. Hunter Safety was a required class in middle school where I'm from. Everyone learned to shoot pellet guns, shot guns and bows.

    I was around 16 years old. My first boyfriend used to take me out shooting for fun.

    My kids all learned much younger. My 6 year old knows how to shoot if someone holds it with her. My 13 yr old daughter started shooting at age 8 and my son at age 9/10. I wanted my children to know about guns from a young age so if ever in a position around one they know the danger in them and won't be curious.

    8ish. .22. Shooting gophers in ND. Got marksman in Air Force. They tried to say I cheated and had the ditz next to me shoot my target. Pretty sure she didn't get a shot off while she was crying.
