Default Starting off a new shooter

My 15 y.o. grandson is visiting for a few weeks. He's not new to guns and he knows how fond I am of them.
Jon's mother (my step-daughter) liked guns when she was little, but now that she is a teacher she hates them. The Dad is from London and he's never been around guns.
Jon and I went fishing yesterday. Out of the blue he said he looks forward to when he turns 21 so that he can get his concealed carry permit! I said that's good, and told him I carry.
Later, after supper, I took him to my local club's indoor range to shoot my S&W Model 15 and a Bersa 22. We had a good time and will do it some more while he's here. I also told him I'll give him a gun when he turns 21.

It's nice to see that some people still can think for themselves. He's a very thoughtful person, and very likeable and personable. I'm glad to have an influence on him. Just thought I'd share that.
