No..FT isn't for a 12yr old with a HW50.
At least buy them a S200 or 400 ..then it is lol.
All the extras on FT guns have a purpose that have
sort of evolved over the years and are the airgun equivalent
of F1.
No, not practical for hunting..that is why FT guys have other guns in my case, Kalibrgun Cricket, TX200's and Prosports with small Bushnells etc on them.
