Firing your first shot with a "real gun" is a significant milestone in the life of a young shooter and for thousands of shooters that first shot was with a single shot Crickett rifle. Scaled to fit younger shooters, the manually cocking, single-shot, bolt action Crickett is the perfect rifle to instill a love of shooting in the young enthusiast. An adjustable rear peep sight and fixed front sight making learning the fundamentals of marksmanship easy. When it is time to learn how to use an optic the Crickett is drilled and tapped for a Crickett scope mount. The small size and light weight make the Crickett a fun gun to shoot.
