I think kids are fine as long as they are first instructed on proper safety, rife respect and handling as well as plain old target practice. Then ya hope they have tough skin. Heck I remember being 12-13 and getting on the range in Borden a number of times via my cadet unit firing 7.62 in the FN, then switched to air cadets from army hood and bag, air no longer got full bore we only had access to .22 insert in the FN at Borden, but at least I was on the range every month as we had our own .22 range in the armory. aww the memories, by the time I was 16 I was teaching the rife course at the squadron and also Assistant Range Safety Officer.

So no age is fine as long as parents, kids and field are all OK and there trained.
