Eddie, this rifle has a 13.9" length of pull and may be a bit long Sir. This Cricket package has an 11.5 inch LOP : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/25913/crickett+ksa2152+cpr+complete+package+bolt+22+lr++(lr)+161+1+adjustabl or the 10/22 Youth ; https://tombstonetactical.com/product/10-22-compact-semi-auto-16in-blued-with-fiber-optic-front-sight-10rd-rifle

Think this would be a little long unless they're tall for 12 years old. I bought my niece and nephew a cricket 22lr to shoot and he's 11 and she's 9 and love it. That or the Savage rascal would be a great beginner rifle also. Hope this helps.
