Awesome! Once you get one with a handgun, carrying a rifle is just no fun anymore. He'll be hooked for sure.
Congrats to your son. You probably have not ruined him, but certainly any chance of calling that gun "my"..........

Boot is right. I shot a little buck first year with My S.B.B.H. (3years ago) & my Model 70 is backup to my two revolvers. CONGRATS! I hope he has many more.
