It's now how old, but how mature. My 11 yr old is almost ready, but not quite, to go with his grandparents. Your 11 yr old might be ready, where mine is not. You have to determine whether your child is mature enough, calm enough, and listens well enough to learn gun safety, to take instruction when he's doing something that he shouldn't or doing something not quite right, etc. If you and your husband think he's ready, then he's probably ready.
If the particular range you want to take him to has an age restriction, I would think that would be posted somewhere near the entrance.
