I think that you should teach him that no good can come from the guns , and divert his attention to something
creative and more suitable for his age. Perhaps you could also visit child psyhologist and figure out from where 10 year old
gets urge to shoot the gun as a hobbie.

There is about one million better things to do in life, then shoot the gun.
