I built my daughter's first .22 rifle from a parts kit as a project. She helped with every step she could and when she took her first shot with it, she looked at me like I'd given her something magic. I kind of did :)
 
That’s not just a .22, you built a memory she’ll outshoot you with someday.
 
You assembled more than a rifle, you assembled a story she’ll tell long after the brass is gone..
 
What did you build? What kit? Picture? What was she shooting before the build?
How do you build a .22 (I am guessing rimfire?) Who sells these parts?
 
I built my son’s first rifle from a stripped lower. He even torqued the castle nut himself and seeing his smile the first time it shot straight made all those hours in the garage worth it.

Those are times he will always remember a s well spent with the old man. Good work, lad.
