Rifle and shotgun when young. Preteen.

Handgun is a completely different matter though. They are MUCH less safe simply because of geometry.

I'd wait till I was absolutely sure of the maturity of the kid. And I mean ABSOLUTELY sure.

I agree. No matter how disciplined you think your kid is, you need to remember how much different muzzle control is with a pistol vs a long gun. It isn't hard to accidentally point it at your own foot.
