Want to get my 16 year old son into competition

[bigwheel]

Sounds like all the poor Daddy needs is to foot the bill for half a million practice rounds per year. Not to mention huffing up hazard fumes for the boy child.

Any particular reason on him going with Taran Tactical? They are nice but overpriced.

Just because it's the one he wants., and because its one of the guns from the movie John Wick. I'm not buying it for him, he is saving up to buy it. I agree its overpriced.

I'm planning on buying a competition style pistol but I'm more budget minded
Looking at the Canik TP9SFX

You make a good point.
Between Fishing, hunting, football, basketball, Baseball, track, golf, his truck, chasing girls, video games my boys do cost me some $$money$$ .
Maybe I shouldn't add another expensive hobby to the list.

How many times are you willing to bail your boys out?

Read good things about the Canik. Not sure how much aftermarket support there is

Any tips on where to start? Any competitions in the Houston /Victoria area?

He has an AR. 16" stag with 1-4× scope
He is getting a pistol soon. Glock by Taran tactical.
Looking for a competition style shotgun still.

Thanks,
M.J.

I can speak for shotguns and the 4H would be a great place to start as they hold County competitions shoots on a constant basis. My daughter is 13 and she competes in skeet, sporting clay, whizbang, and trap shooting matches.
