    Teaching Kids - Open sights or scope?

    I'm teaching my son (7yo) to shoot, he's using my CZ .22, scoped with a 2-7 weaver. He's doing quite well and really enjoys it.However, even with the weaver scope being quite forgiving, he does struggle sometimes in getting his head in the right spot with the right eye relief to get a good sight picture - the length of the stock doesn't help either. In order to make things simpler for him , I was considering ditching the scope and going to open sights for this early learning stage.

    Those of you who have taught your kids to shoot, what path did you take?
