👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 A Common Question from Parents:
“Is it safe for my child to try shooting?”
At Mabali Sports Shooting Club, we understand the hesitation. That’s why we’ve designed a safe, structured, and age-appropriate approach — starting with the .22 caliber rifle.
🔍 Why the .22?
âś… Low Recoil
Kids won’t be overwhelmed by the shock. The .22 feels smooth — no kickback, no intimidation.
âś… Quiet Sound
Compared to 9mm or .30 bore, the .22 is much quieter. That makes it perfect for first-timers who might get nervous with loud bangs.
âś… Lightweight and Easy to Handle
The rifle is designed for easy grip and posture training, ideal for smaller frames and less upper body strength.
âś… Builds Confidence, Not Fear
Starting with a .22 teaches discipline and control without fear. Kids learn the importance of focus, posture, and safety from Day 1.
