your first rifle should be a .22 as everyone has already stated.
remember:
a gun is loaded unless you have checked it to prove otherwise, if someone else handles it or you leave it unatended, you have to assume its loaded again.
never point a gun at something you dont want to destroy or kill, because an accidental discharge will destroy or kill whatever your pointing your gun at.
always keep your safty on until you are ready to take a shot.
never put your finger on the trigger until you are ready to take a shot.
be shur of your target and what is beyond it.
